Hi my surgey is on November 10th. My starting weight when I entered the program was 216.4. My doctor who's name is Dr. Im from Kaiser, wants me to get down to 130 lbs. That's fine with me, I look at it as pre baby having days... Lol. Good luck on your surgery. Keep in touch. Let me know how your doing after surgery so that I can get an idea about how I might be feeling afterwards since we are having them the same week
