6 DAYS POST OP--WOULD DO IT AGAIN!!
I HAD SURGERY AT KINGS DAUGHTERS MEDICAL CENTER ON FRIDAY AUGUST 22ND WITH DR. TIM WHEELER AS MY SURGEON. I AM 6 DAYS PRE-OP AND I CAN ALREADY TELL YOU THAT I WOULD GLADLY DO IT AGAIN! I HAD LAP ROUX-EN-Y. SURGERY, HOSPITAL AND PHASE WENT GREAT. PHASE II IS NOT MUCH FUN, BUT I'M IN THIS THING FOR THE LONG HAUL. I WEIGHED 237 BEFORE GOING ON MY 2 WEEK PRE-OP DIET AND THE LAST I WAS WEIGHED WAS IN THE OFFICE ON THE MONDAY BEFORE MY SURGERY ON FRIDAY. I WEIGHED 229.8. TODAY I GOT ON THE SCALES AND THEY SAY 214. I'M ON MY WAY. I KNOW IT'S GOING TO ALL BE WORTH IT.
