Greetings from Oklahoma

I am just over 2 months out from my Roux-en-Y procedure. Before my insurance would cover the procedure, I had to have a period of "medical weight loss management". I visited my surgeon for this and lost 20 lbs before the surgery. Since my surgery, I have lost another 60lbs with still a long ways to go. I look forward to learning from others on this forum.

When and where did you have your surgery? Dr. Gornichec at Baptist in okc did, mine just 3 1/2 weeks ago, di feel that the program at Baptist/Deaconess is the best in Oklahoma.

Dr Gornechec did mine at Baptist... Overall a good experience considering it is major surgery. I am glad to hear that you are doing well.

Hi! I had my RNY surgery November 29, 2011 so today is my two week "birthday". I think I'm doing pretty well, other than having difficulty getting all the water and protein down. But I do have lingering pain in my incisions and a phantom backache that just won't go away. My surgery was done by Dr. Varnell at Bailey Medical in Owasso.
