I'm in McKinney, TX. and pre-sleeve. I'm heading to Cancun for mine, though. Insurance wants me to give them both arms and legs to have WLS and definitely feel this is the way to go for me. :)

He mentioned about a possible hernia but never about possibly getting any monies back....wow another one of God's blessing's if that happens but then I don't want a hernia either so a catch 22 isn't it?

My friend had her's with Dr Kim as well on Jan 30th has lost 90-lbs. We had dinner the other night and she looks absolutely great, happy, healthy a glow that I never saw in the 20+ years I have known her. She has been a great asset with advice and knowing that not everything that worked for her will work for me.

Dr Kim is very direct and honestly if your looking for bedside manner he is not your guy but his staff you could not ask for anyone nicer. I am okay with him not being great bedside manner...all I care about is his experience, results and past patients experiences...all of which have been good.

I have started writing in a journal to help with my emotions, excitment, etc. I have only told a few friends and my immediate family.

My friends said December 13th Christmas time...my response. There will always be other holidays, etc and this is no different so bring on December 13th...

Thank you all for the information and support. I can't wait for December 13th.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
