Surgeon Testimonial

George G. Zorn M.D.
I first saw Dr. Zorn at the Orientation Lecture. He was able to answer every question with confidence. He made me feel comfortable with my decision to have WLS. I was so elated to find he was to be my surgeon. He was so warm and caring at my consultation appointment. I especially liked that he knew a lot about how Kaiser worked. He is very warm and caring. I am not even scared at all. I have full confidence in Dr. Zorn.

    I talked with her last night and she sounded GREAT! Surgery was just fine. She was nauseated yesterday, but when they took her off morphine, that went away. She wasn't thrilled with the Heperan shots, which are given in the belly. As far as food, she eats a few ice chips and that's it--no hunger. One of the nurses told her it was like a baby learning to eat. I asked when she'd get to come home and she was told there is least a 3-day stay in the hospital. The hospital staff is great, although the more experienced nurses are nicer. She wasn't able to go to the daily class yesterday because of the nausea, but plans on going today.

Disappointed

Well, I have not been doing ANY of what I should be doing.  I know I've been stress eating.  ALOT lately.  I can't seem to get myself back on track.  It's hard for me right now.  I am having some serious blues.  Pray for me cuz I truly need it.

Been a while

okay so I just had my last baby girl.  I never imagine being so obsessed with weight while pregnant.  I wasn't even at my target weight yet,  which is totally my fault for SLACKING so badly.  Now I am back up with a whole 30lbs to lose.  I have got to get motivated to do this.  I know all too well how quickly those lbs can pile on after child birth if I don't keep it under control. 
HELP!!!  I'VE FALLEN OFF THE WAGON AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET MY BIG BUTT BACK ON IT!!!!

Well...it's time
on December 2, 2009 12:44 pm
Well I'm almost a year and a half out.  The "honeymoon" phase is clearly over an it is time to start REALLY putting in work to make this new relationship with my body work.  I am going to start the 5 day pouch test this weekend and then it's off to a new start.  pray for me cause I refuse to fail.   I have been letting stress do to me what it had been doing for the past 10 years but....NO MORE..... This is MY journey, MY life, MY body and I WILL have control of it.

Looking The same but not complaining
on October 8, 2009 12:05 pm
I don't look any different.  I've been in this same spot for a few months now.  But, when I catch myself complaining I just come to OH and look at my before pictures.  That always puts things into perspective for me.
   I guess it is time to step it up a notch or 3.

My Story

   In January 2007, I was 289 pounds.  One fad diet away from 300 lbs.  My cousin had undergone rny surgery about 2 years prior but I felt it was extreme.  I wanted to be sure I had exhausted all other options.  I began the Optifast program.  After 20 weeks of shakes (and about 17 weeks of on and off cheating), I was down to 248 lbs.  When the weight started coming back on I had had enough!   I then found out I have mild arthritis in my knees.  My doctor gave me a referral and so began my journey in Options, Kaiser's bariatric surgery preparation program.  I have learned soooo much in my classes at Kaiser!!!  I am learning to love me for me.  And it feels so damned goood
