"Bariatric coordinator is stretched very thin. She and I have not communicated well on the phone, however when you meet with her in person she will give you all of her attention. There is some conflicting nutrition information on the packets given to you at the office and the packet given to you at the hospital. Dr. LaMar is very considerate and thorough. He is very absolute on the diet information and can conflict with the office nutritionist. Apparently there is a 1 in 5 failure rate which I was never told. i guess I'm that 1. please don't judge me on eating as I have seen their nutritionist who is the only one from this office who has offered me support.. I have run several races and a half marathon and still have only lost 65 lbs. I have 60 to loose. This failure seems to be ok with the rest of the surgeons. I have been complaining about never feeling full for the first 6 months after the surgery and not having the tool that RNY was supposed to bring to my life. Instead I was told by Dr. Pehrsson to see a therapist. If that would help than surgery would be unnecessary. I think i may go in for a DS with a doctor who at least pretends to care."
