Due to severe GERD and a failed attempt to repair a hiatal hernia last year I found out today that I will be having another hernia repair surgery and the surgeon also recommended revision from sleeve to bypass. He was driving while he was telling me this so the call…

Hi! I had gastric sleeve in 2015 and lost about 100 lbs. I had some stuff go on in my life and unfortunately went back to my old ways. Over the course of so many years most of the weight has crept back on. I’m so disappointed in myself and…

Happy Monday everyone. Saturday was a total wash out and I was feeling tired and lazy from going in so early Thursday and Friday so I just did minimal stuff. Yesterday I did a bit more, but the darn wind was crazy outside which made it a bit cooler than…

I'm 44 yrs old and have been on disability since 2000 for my depression (and debated bipolar II). I have run the gammut of meds - to the point where the font almost requires a magnifier so I can keep it to one page. My therapist has spoken about how…

Greetings, So I really hit a low point with some financial stress that I went through with a small business I have and reverted back to my old ways of dealing with things - very poor food choices over a couple of months. I feel terrible, but I am ready…

Getting on a scale when you know you ate like crap the day before is hard. That's when you want to stop and fall off and avoid or change a commitment that you made to yourself. A daily lifestyle change , weigh myself daily. Just one time everyday in the…

The 4th was the 2nd holiday since starting the generic Contrave meds. On Memorial Day I didn't feel great and didn't miss the usual family food traditions. For Independence Day we didn't celebrate which was fine. I'm still a bit blue over the recent tragedy in N. Idaho. It will be good to…

Know your purpose and know that you are built for this. I am willing to walk into the callign of life- even when it feels uncomfortable and continue to know there is more and refuse to settle and just blend in.

Life changes are experiences that are a natural occurrence .. Starting over again is challenging and very human natural experience . Ive gained and lost and gained and lost ..it's just life happening. Starting over is my chance to get the life I want and deserve.

Dr. Ferzli listens to you when you speak and he doesn't rush you at all. That is so important to me. He and his whole team are caring and helpful. I have never felt like I was alone on my journey. His entire program is great and so is the…

When things go wrong you're on your own.
19 years later I can still say I highly recommend Dr. Rawlins and his practice for top-notch surgical care as well as after-care. Due to many issues, around ten years post-op I fell away from following rules and regained. However, to this day my surgical pouch restrictions are still intact…
