Hi Alicia: I am sheryl and I am 3 month out from Open RNY surgery and I feel great. I had acid reflux and didnt have the upper gi or any thing and I did great.I have lost 77 lbs sofar and am eating anyting I want within reason.Have you prepared for your surgery? I prepared for 5 months before my surgery and lost 70 lbs before surgery. I have lost a total of 146 lbs since Feb. I have had no stomach problems since surgery. I have never throughn up or had diarea either. I am eating salads, fresh vegies, fresh fruits, and all the meats now. I would say go for it. But prepare your body before hand. Please let me know how you do I am interested. Sheryl

I saw Dr Sooriash yesterday. Wow, was I nervous! I wanted to make a good impression and at the same time get as many of many questions answered (7 pages!!). He is very direct and to the point, but not rude -- I like that! I had heard some negative comments (names withheld) and honestly didnt know what to think but I came in with an open mind. He was there to help me through the process and anything information he had he's will share - an open and honest physican - Wow! I am still evaulating but so far I like what I hear. I have been going thru this process for sometime and at times I wanted to give up - insurance makes things so difficult - but persistance helps. My next and most important goal is to loose 15lbs. This will show to him my commitment to a lifestyle change. Am I ready? Will I let a bad day, upset stomach, stress, get in my way? NO NO NO NO!!! Now that I have consulted with a physican, I have a goal to meet and I will work everyday, every minute to meet and exceed that goal. I'll keep you posted on my weight loss efforts.
