jhemp85 106 Posted December 7, 2016 I had to move my 1st meeting with the Dr until after the 1st of the year. But since I am self pay, I am hoping to have it in Feb. I turn 40 in June and would love to have it done before then. However, Jan, March and April are tough months at work for time off.

tahoegirl96118 43 Posted December 7, 2016 Mine will probably be in late January or early February. I just found out I have sleep apnea and Kaiser requires that I use a cpap for 2 months. I go today to pick mine up but I'm only 16 pounds from my surgery weight so I could potentially have my surgery sooner! Yay. Excited and nervous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crafty Li'l Devil 144 Posted December 7, 2016 Took my before picture yesterday! Beforevsg.jpgYay! How is the pre-op diet going for you? I am going to take my before photos as well!So far so good. I am trying to stomach 2 shakes a day and one meal, but working my way to that. Instead I do one shake, one Protein rich snack and then a Protein rich dinner. I'm finding an easier time that way. Haven't cut caffeine totally but have cut out Coca cola completely and stopped smoking. I'm on day 3 and not feeling unsatisfied and feeling pretty proud of myself. When I weighed at the docs office Thursday I was 428. On my own scale today I was 418! Can't wait to see your before pics And especially your after pics.
