Good morning!
I had the pleasure of recording this testimonial of a patient of mine who came back to Endohospital after her Gastric Sleeve Surgery.
If you want to see her first-hand experience check it out here:

I haven't discovered any new recipes, but I do crave all types of food. My go to food during the super bowl used to be chips (tostitos) and Mexican dip. I'm trying to get back on the weight loss boat but keep reaching for chocolates and not exercising. Great post, hope to see some food ideas to help me curve my appetite. My go to healthy foods are yogurt, cottage cheese, and eggs.
Hi all!
What new bariatric friendly recipes have you discovered recently? Anything you've been craving and can't find something to fit the bill?
Anyone thinking ahead to super bowl food prep? In my house, we're planning on having a few friends that we work with every day over but nothing like we've had in previous years. I want to have healthy options that also feel game-day suited.
As many of the previous posts said, there are successes and failures with any of the surgeries. I didn't like the idea of my intestines being rerouted and my biggest issue was that I just ate way too much so I went with the sleeve. I had my surgery in September 2015 and it was the best decision I've ever made. I have lost and kept off over 200 pounds. My surgeon calls me a huge success and has said that I have lost more and kept it off better than many of his bypass patients. Any of the surgeries are what you make of them.

Wow! I thank you so very much for you taking the time to share so much information with me! You really know a lot about the weight loss procedures etc. It is very helpful and appreciated.
Thank you for the good wishes and congratulations on your weight loss!
I am a binge eater too and don't usually drink my calories. It's water mostly for me with an occasional swig of soda or maybe an ice coffee or two a month. Congratulations on your weight loss!
I appreciate the information very much!
Thank you for this information!
