Makingchanges 51 Posted September 19, 2011 This is my last month of my supervised diet, with the dietitian and I will meet with my surgeon next month, could someone please help me out by giving me some question to ask him. Let me say this, the closer I get to this, it seem like I am going blank, it’s like I knew all the questions I were to ask three or four months ago and now that I am a month away I can’t remember nothing. Does that mean I am getting nerves? Because I thought I had it all together, LOL. I will appreciate any question you could think of, it just might jog my memory to help me remember mines. Thank you, so much for your help in advance. Gina Singing Lord help me to remember!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smkeller 3 Posted September 20, 2011 Read midwesterngirl's blog. She was the main source of pertinent information for me. She has listed all the things that you should be concerned about with your surgery.

smkeller 3 Posted September 26, 2011 I'm sorry, she changed her name to wasabubblebutt. Don't ask me why. So now her blog is http://wasabubblebutt.blogspot.com/ I used everything I could from her store of knowledge and her willingness to help those seeking surgery from reputable surgeons. She was invaluable to me. I know that she is going through some trying times, but email her if you can't find what you need in her blog. Thank you so much.
