Luis V. Gorospe M.D. I was very impressed by seminar I attended for Dr Gorospe. He did come recommended by fellow co-workers who have already had WLS. Gave a very detailed presentation of both options, providing pros and cons. The decision is always left up to the patient to choose which tool will best help them. I had already decided on the lap/RNY after discussing with both my primary care dr and specialist for my diabetes.
Lisa has been great.........she let me fax over my approval letter to expedite scheduling since the office move has caused some delays when the case processors decided not to make the move and they are training new person to take over where others left off. Been a bit choatic for her, but a real trooper trying to help in the meantime.
Monday is your day!
Just remember you
are on the journey
of a lifetime. Try
to enjoy every
minute. It may sound
weird now, but know
that you are cared
for and prayed for
here, and all too
soon this will be
but a memory and you
will be an
inspiration to
someone else. I am
waiting for you on
the losers' bench!
Onederland - Today March 6 2008 I finally hit under 200 lbs! Today it is 198! Now my driver license is only 18 lbs under my actual weight, ha, ha. I've kept it at 180 for the past 15 years even though I weighed more.
I now weigh less than my brother, of course, he is taller and can carry more weight. (6' and about 210) But he says he wants to get down to 180, so I have to keep on losing to weigh less than him. A little competition does not hurt.
Since I started my weight loss, my mother has also been losing weight and she has been under 195 I believe for a month or so now. More competition there, but I guess I do have an advantage as far as controlling what I eat!
I am so happy and still recovering well from my recent surgery.

Way to Go!!
I can't wait to weigh less than 200.
You look 10 years younger in your avatar than in your "heavy" picture.
