Question:
March 29, 2000. My new beginning. Lap RNY with Dr. Aslam in Augusta, Maine.

I've been waiting for this news since November 8th! I know the time will go quickly but it seems that it can't come quickly enough. I know you've all gone through this...any suggestions?    — f M. (posted on February 14, 2000)

Fran: I'm 3 months and 3 weeks post-op, and wanted to congratulate you on your surgery date. Dr. Aslam is also my surgeon, and I found him to be responsive, patient and talented. What impressed me most, though, was the wonderful things I heard about him from the nurses on the surgical floor. It really made me feel good about my decision. I also am well aware of his success with patients, including myself; my loss is a bit over 65 lbs, and I'm enjoying wearing size 14 clothing again ... about halfway to my goal. Make sure to do everything Dr Aslam suggests and you'll do just great! Cindy
