btw i did the Options program at Woodland Hills Kaiser a few years ago and it was great, really educational. Unfortunately i didnt end up getting the surgery back then but a few years later im less than 36 hours away from it,i changed my insurance to PPO so im not doing it at kaiser but youll do great, youll learn alot during the options program...the food and exercise logs really help open your eyes about what we put in our bodies....best of luck on your journey!!!
