Topic: RE: Has anyone gone through the Barix Clinic in Ypsi??
I had a wonderful experience w/ Dr. Pop and the staff both before and after my RNY.  The only person I didn't really care for was the nutritionalist.  The nurses who took care of me after surgery were amazing, very attentive and caring.  My surgery was routine, I had no complications and so far I've see great success.  I was allowed to skip my 6 month check up (just had to send in the blood work) because I've been doing so well.  I look forward to my 12 month check up this summer :)

Hey Laurie, I was just going to ask the same thing.  Haven't been on in about 3 years.  Glad to hear everything is going well with you.  I'm still stuck in the 160 lb range and am happy about that.  I am also experiencing muscle cramping sometimes and increased my B12 and that seemed to help.  Glad to see there are still old timers checking in on occasion.

I remember all too well the "Time to make the doughnuts" guy.... I just loved that commercial and I joke about that all the time when I have to be at work REALLY early..... My kids don't get it either, maybe we are getting old... LOL.....

 

Totally love that you have named your pouch.... I just call mine my tiny tummy... I had a piece of sausage at work today for breakfast, then for lunch I had a slice of BBQ chicken pizza and then some tomato soup for dinner... not much protein today, but I will make up for it another day, I am not good at that end, but my labs always come back OK... and I just had them drawn about 6 weeks ago... so I am all good for this year... LOL....

 

We are on Spring break here this week and will be heading to Frankenmuth for the next 3 days... The kids are geeked and I can't wait to get away for a few days.... It is also hubby's birthday so we are going to be doing something special for dinner on Wednesday night..... I think I may even tell them it is his birthday so that they will embarrass him... LOL.....

Have a good week....

HUGs,

Morning Mary, and the rest of my OH family,

I have today and tomorrow left on my externship and then I will be looking for a job. The time sure went fast. My daughter just found a great job in a Doctors office in Flint. I hope I am just as fortunate. I am glad I went to school and I am glad she was there with me for part of the time. I hope I can find an Medical Assistant job close to home with the price of gas.

Have a great day

Good Morning Michiganders and Any one else who lurks!

Up at 5 to take the great niece to Dunkin Donuts for her job. "Time To Make The Donuts" LOL she didn't  even get it when I said that to her. I must be getting old!

got a cup of sugar free capachino with skim milk. Will do some protein powder and cottage cheese later. Stitch(my pouch) is just a little finicky lately. He seems to be on a strawberry kick. I could eat em for every meal of the day!

How is it going in your neck of the woods?

One of my best friends nearly lost her husband after one of the surgeons there at that facility gave him a VSG.   He ended up on life support for several days afterwards.    Close enough to home for me!!    I will pass and drive the 2hrs.    Plus I used to know one of the nurses there personally.    Never met a nastier woman in my life and definately NOT who I would want to be taking care of me after my surgery.
