Surgeon Testimonial

Michael L. Schwartz, M.D.
I love my surgeon! He is warm and comfortable and yet can crack a joke. He was very down to earth and made me very comfortable during the consult. I work at the hospital I'm having my surgery done and I could not have picked a better surgeon to do my procedure. I'm very impressed at how professional yet warm and compassionate everyone is. I wasn't sure at one point if I had fallen through the cracks and not made all the appointments I was supposed to or submitted the right paperwork. I was immediately reassured that I had and we were on track. rnrnDr Schwartz definately knows what he's doing. It felt very good that he made it a point that they will be following me for life.. So I should have no worries down the road. I think he has VERY high surgical competence and his bedside manner is warm and caring.

Well its been 5 weeks since my 9/24/09 3 month check up. I was 188.4 that day... (WLS office scale)
Today 10/29/09 I am 180.3... (again, WLS office scale)

The last 5 weeks have been very stressful financially for me.. I had something that I thought was taken care of 2/08 come back to haunt me.  So that taken care of, I'm now behind on other bills and will struggle to pay off the money borrowed to pay this. 

So the stress I'm sure slowed down my weightloss. The last two weeks I worked really hard on water, walking, and eating right.. very little carbs if any unless naturally in foods.. reading labels.. eating organic yogurt instead of high fructose corn syrup filled ones.. (bub-bye yoplait light!) Things like that.. I was stuck at 188 for about 3 weeks and I think the last two is when I lost the last 8.. I was in shock when the RN told me my number today.. So I'm hoping the plateau is over and I'm on the losing bench again...
