have to lose about 20 pds.

hi all, i went to see my doctor friday, he said i should lose 20 pds. i guess i went to him the first time and thought i would be getting my surgery date on second visit, i let myself put on 13 pds,so i guess it is the right thing to do !! i need to prep my self for a life change !! see you at marium WLS group, happy holidays !!

Hey there.  Sorry things didn't go as you planned at the Friday appointment.  Remember, Dr. Sax is trying to make sure you and your liver are in the best possible shape for surgery.  You are exactly right - all of this is a life changing event, one for the better.
Will plan on seeing you at the Miriam Support Group.

Hey Rhody!

You must feel bummed out! When's your next appointment? I'm sure you'll do fine. If you start following the pouch rules now and adjust your calorie intake now, you'll be right on track.

See you at the Miriam Meeting! Meanwhile, if you need a little extra support, PM me your email and I'll send you an email reminder of the new "Living Life" support group meeting at Roger Williams Medical Center.

It's this Wednesday!!!
