HiJack:
Mine is the day before so I'll be walking the halls at the same time...see you after surgery! Were you at the diet class on Dec 29? My BMI is so borderline, he told me not to lose an ounce between now and the 24th.

Good luck on your diet.

Good luck with your surgery...mine is the week before yours.

My husband had his on the 16th of Dec, he also had a DS. He's lost 30lbs already.

Good luck Guys! It may get old or boring on the liquid stage, but you will get thru it. Before you know it, you will look back and a whole bunch of fat will be gone.....forever! Sherry

Hello, fellow Dr. B patient!

Whoo hoo on getting your date and inching towards it. He wasn't requiring a pre-op at the time I had mine (of course that was 2.5 yrs ago) but honestly, you will be in the best of hands. He is a well-respected physician in this area (even as a general surgeon before he went into bariatrics) and also performed my gallbladder removal at 9 mos out and an exploratory and hernia repair at 15 mos out.

The whole group there is great and I'm so excited for you!

Tell him Leslie says hi!

Be happy.
