Surgeon Testimonial

John Yadegar
I first met Dr. Yadegar at the Kaiser Orientation in Panorama City. I found him to be very knowledgable and his presentation as good as the UCLA presentation I saw 2 weeks before. I decided that I would like to have him do my WLS if he could get me in sooner than UCLA.rnrnHis creditials and success rate are outstanding. He has a charming bedside manner but is very matter of fact when it comes to the possible risks. You will understand EVERYTHING before you go under the knife and if you don't- you obviously weren't paying attention.rnrnHis office staff is accessable, kind and extremely friendly. When it comes to the ins and outs of the insurance game- let me bluntly say that they know their shit.rnrnHis program- BEFORE AND AFTERCARE is Headed by Liz Roark and is by far one of the best and most detailed follow up programs available. They REALLY want you to succeed and provide all the tools to do so!rnrnOverall, I would rate the Surgeon and his office a 10 out of 10. I feel confident that I will succeed and that I the best support with the Doctor and his team behind me.

So tired of everything
on August 23, 2008 7:13 pm

If you wanted to go see a show, go to the ballet or just to a movie- could you?

I can't

If you got your period out of no where, can you go to the store and buy tampons?

I can't

Can you take a real, live family vacation?

I can't

If you saw a shirt on sale, can you just BUY it?

I can't

If your car breaks down, can you have it fixed?

I can't

When your rent is due, can you pay it?

I can't

Can you impulsively buy a pack of gum?

I can't

I'm tired of it. I want a real life like other people have and I want it now...

My Depression Dilema

2 or 3 days before I get my period, I get depressed. I get SO depressed that I become despondent...this is not normal.

DO NOT COMPARE
on August 16, 2008 7:43 pm
I am COMPARING my weight loss to other people's WEIGHT LOSS and I'm starting to get discouraged!

WHY am I hungry all the time?
WHY am I not dropping as fast as everyone else?
WHY am I so fucking tired?

62 lbs. in 5 1/2 months? Some people lose that in their 1st  2 months after surgery!

Failure? Not a complete failure, but close.

My Unfortunate Hair Dying Accident
on August 14, 2008 11:11 pm
I tried to dye my hair last night. Apparently, the WLS has change my hairs consistancy so the dye didn't take...in spots! SO...I had Red Hair at the scalp, Brown hair on one side of my face, GREEN hair on the other and BLONDE hair in the back...UH OH!

So I go to sleep hoping that it looks worse in the evening than it really does and it the morning it wont look so bad....ummmm- WRONG! In the daylight, it looked WORSE.

I had to go around the corner and see if anyone of the 50 million salons could fix me. BINGO- the first one I went to had a cancellation. She dyed me and cut off the dead, pathetic excuse for hair that I was sporting and in a weird way- I got the make-over I SO richly deserved! EXPENSIVE, but worth it!

The office went wild today! I guess it too 10 years off of me and makes my face look MUCH thinner! Even my office crush liked it! I feelz so special!

Pictures to follow...

For some reason...
on August 7, 2008 3:08 pm
My diet is not up to par.

Since I went to Chicago, I haven't been able to get back on track. I haven't been bad foodwise per say BUT I'm not getting in over 100 grams of protein like I have and I've been so tired and have had such terrible back pain that my exercise has really fallen off.

Stupid. Not rockin the tool like I should.

Now I'm worried that my surgeon is going to be pissed even though I've taken off- like 60 lbs. since surgery
