Last January my husband and I went to a open house and listen to what the Drs and ASNP and it made sense to me. Also why my weight go up and down., it would happenn to me.
I went to do and evaluation in early Febuary then started the journey to get to my surgery date. I first was told it would be 3 months of intake and the 6 month. I compleated the 6 month the first of August. And waited for a surgery date. The date was Sept 7, time of 2:30 pm.
Dr Chock came in before surgery and I went home the next day. My husband stayed with me for the first 24 hrs and then I was on my own. I did well drinking a liquid diet for a week and then soft food, and then having regular diet. I have doing well, and really aware of what is happeing to my stomach and band. I am not hunger and will have my first fill ext week.
I am Thankful for the help that Both Dr Chock, her staff have given me. And will keep them in my mind as I go through this the rest of my life.
