Surgeon Testimonial

Paul Kemmeter
Dr. Kemmeter spoke at the orientation I was at and he seemed very nice and honest and caring. He was honest about the number of deaths he had and why it happened. He was informative about the risks during surg. He was informative about what not to do after surgery. I have met with him two times since orientation the first time was when I had my EGD done, he performed it. He was very nice then also. The second time was to discuss what type of surgery was right for me. He was very personable and kind. I feel that I will be safe with him as my surgeon. He is also a trauma surgeon which makes me even feel more safe! I will be able to update more soon. After I have my surgery.

Well I hit a minor set back with my weight loss. I was stuck for a LONG time and even gained a few pounds, but it was all due to my medicine I got put on for depression called amitriptyline. It caused me to gain weight and retain ALOT of water! yikes! but now I am back on track and loosing again, 6 more pounds and I will finally be in onederland! Remember my goal is 180 so I am pretty darn close! I was beginning to feel like I was doomed to walk the planet in the low 200's for the rest of my life! But I dont think that is the plan!  So wish me luck on getting to my final goal! I have lost 7 pounds in one week now that I stopped taking that stupid pill! It's soooo frustrating! I just want to be 190 by May 7th , cause that is my one year follow up with my surgeon~!
