Narcosis

So I started this 1200 cal per day food plan that Kaiser put me on. No problems there as I made really good choices with the food. My problem is SIPPING Water. I am fortunate in that I love water, always have. Drinking 500ml in one chug seems normal. Anyone else struggle with just sipping water?

Hi, all. I'm in Northern California and working with Kaiser. My doc was great and gave me a referal to Bariatrics. I was assigned to the Richmond facility and attended the orientation today. At the orientation were also provided with our next appointment date, either Psych or Surgeon. I got the Psych first. So, I have a start weight to work with and know where I need to be. I have perused the forums for about the last 2 months and figured I'd say hello when I actually started the process. I figure there is a lot to learn here and wanted to learn and share my experience. As for my screen name, I'm also a SCUBA Diver. Regards

I can say it took about 10 days to get the appointment card in the mail from Richmond. I got one phone call, automated, just to confirm my appointment. I suspect that facility is very busy as they have orientation every Tuesday and there were about 70 people at the class. Keep calling them and always be polite, and ask for what you want. Good luck!
