Very informative for those going to have the sedation.
Doctor orrin.s.probst is the best doctor to go to and he is so nice to me and everyone he sees. I'm just so grateful to have him as a nice and kind doctor 🙂😺🐶👨⚕️🩺🥼
Very informative and great presentation in layman's verbiage, so that the audience can understand what is going on. Some presentations have acronyms and medical jargon, which non-medical persons do not understand. This was very positive and encouraging. Personally, I did not struggle with weight outside my pregnancies, except when I hit Menopause. Then the crap hit the fan. No matter what I did (eating right, exercising), I could not lose weight, in fact, I gained weight!🤣I have come to the recent decision after trying diets, exercise, medications, that surgery is the last resort and option at this point. Thank you!

This is very important for people that cannot have general anesthesia safely. Almost all surgeries can be done with regional anesthesia even open heart surgery. You can be paralyzed from the neck down for the surgery. I personally cannot have sedation either due to heath issues. Only a handful of surgeries cannot be done with regional anesthesia.
Greedy Nurses.
This is our cardiologist and we love him.
Do you have references for the quotes statistics of weight regain?
Yes, I would like to know too because my experience in real life is that almost everyone I've come across having this surgery has gained their weight back or never lost all of it in the first place. I would like to know out of the 7 people who maintain their weight, how many of them are normal weight. Maintaining your weight loss if you are still obese isn't considered a success in my book. I mean it's better than nothing but that's about it.
Lot's of good information, I'm really ready for this.
Food waste is a HUGE PROBLEM with hospital meals.
In schools too. In my state they make kids take a fruit or vegetables so that the state will pay for their food, but a lot of kids immediately throw it away
Hii sir good evening sir my name Sai Krishna boddu Andhra Pradesh Vijayawada India bufour working gulf country working Iraq Qatar Bahrain Afghanistan food service and mechanical supervisor
Ive noticed alot of people say they went on a liquid diet for 2 weeks before surgery. My surgeon told me to do liquids for 2 days before surgery with the day before clear liquids only. 2 days doing liquids is waaaaay better then 2 weeks!!
Same
It's only for 2 days
That’s not fair. I’m not allowed anything but liquids. Both, protein shakes and jello
This is crazy
Having major pain 6 weeks after blocker. I wish I wouldn’t Have done it. Had a super great surgery without the blocker. I’ve had both hips done. Another person I know Had a very bad experience With the blocker. Just think about we’re there giving the shot there’s a lot of nerves there. U just have to do your own research and see what’s the best for you.

I 🫶🏽that I found this page 🥰. Dr Kamala delivered my son at St Joseph’s in Towson, Md. In August of 1993, and she was the best… like literally 🔝 tier at what she does. My husband and I remember her fondly nearly 30 yrs to the day. She was absolutely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, and I hope Iowa is treating her well 🥰. Best wishes 🤗😘. Oh, my son lives in Oklahoma and we’re visiting him and his family this coming weekend 🎉. I’m turning 55 & my husband 65 respectively on the 15th & 16th of July 2023🥳
Great video! I have a question: I had a concussion about 6 weeks ago, since then I have slowly been recovering, although I am still symptomatic (headaches). I have been able to do steady-state cardio at 80% of my HR max for 3 weeks now. Am I ready to now start doing other types of exercise like weight lifting and rock climbing? Or should I wait with these kinds of anaerobic exercises until I am not symptomatic anymore? Hope you can give me some insights!
What if you have extreme depression and never want to see your kids or bother with them at all.
Almost the same with me
I am battling
Thank you. I’ve been stuck for months trying to make a decision whether to choose entering a program for reputation vs a program with an actual work life balance. And hearing from these doctors helped a lot making the decision just now, especially dr. Locker. 😌
I just finished the video and learned some new things. When I was loosing weight on my own I read somewhere that you should eat 1 gram of protein for every pound you wanted to weigh, now I know I don't need that much. Green vegetables are the best to eat to help with weight loss. I also realize now that this will be a life long commitment and my support people will be a great ade to use when I need a little extra help.
Pretty nostalgic to see the old a star N779LF… Aviation site manager Don West gave my dad and I a maintenance ride in that aircraft when I was a junior in high school. He raved about how awesome it was to work with them in the field as a state trooper! The life flight program has been amazing !!

He is an awesome doctor

Great information, going to practice toes to the noes, keep the risk of blood clots down! WEPN really sticks to, glad to hear that after the initial videos and reading. I have a question about protein in the first few weeks of liquid diet, do you find that patients that meet there protein goals not only have better long term weight loss, but does is help with reducing hair loss?

This guy has such a terrible bedside manner. Borderline gross.
Tylenol is a poor pain regulator. Is that your only suggestion
I SO AGREE! Tylenol didn't even helped me when I was on my special Days!
