Samantha, I am also a teacher and will have surgery with Dr. Domkowski on Dec. 20th. I would love to hear from you about what to expect pre and post op.

Dr D is the best. I trusted him with my life and would do it again. Pre op is paper work, finances, liquids... The day of the surgery was fairly easy. Right before you go under is the scariest part, but then you wake up and it's all over. Post op is a completely different animal. It's like you are an infant again learning how to eat and digest food. As long as you follow all the guidelines given to you by Dr D and nutritionist you will do great! The first two weeks after surgery are the hardest. Just remember it is temporary. It is completely worth it. I'm down 60 pounds and a little shy of 3 months post op. I had surgery may 24.

Best of luck to you. Let me know if you have any other questions.
