Question for Dr. Duncan's Patients
Hi all.
My surgery date is 2/17/04. I was told by Karen to not weigh more than 245 when I go for my pre-op which is this Thursday. I did gain some weight over the holidays (duh) and have gotten back down to 246.5, however I can't seem to lose the extra few pounds to get below 245. Will Dr. Duncan really cancel me if I am just 1-2 lbs. over my consult weight?
Thanks,
Tiff aka Nervous in Atlanta!
Thanks Joe.
I did talk to Joyce in Dr. D's office yesterday and told her my dilemma. Since I have been riding a bike 10 - 15 miles each night at the gym she said I should be fine...muscle weighs more than fat. I am still dieting big time until Thursday...wish me luck that I can shed that extra 1.5 lbs.
I am crossing fingers, toes, eyes, anything that will cross in hopes that I can do it.

Hi Tonya,
I weighed in 1.5 lbs. less this morning... I am back to consult weight! Yeah!
I burned over 700 calories at the gym last night and plan on doing the same routine tonight as well. Hopefully I can get down a little bit more before tomorrow morning. Let's hope Dr. D's scales weigh light!
See you in the morning!
