Hope everyone is doing well!!!!!Can't believe how excited I was to be sleeve that I forgot to mention that I woke up from the surgery with a seriously chipped tooth. The Anesthesiologist said I woke up gritting my teeth and one tooth chipped. I have always taken care of my teeth and walked in there with no problems with my teeth. I have always been complimented on my teeth but, he swears one must have been lose or cracked already.

Anyone Here From Los Angeles,ca That Can Give Me Info Please?
Hi I was 262 lbs when I started the options program. By the time I saw the surgeon for the consult. I was down another 12 lbs. When I went for my pre op I was 5 more lbs down. I had to return the day before surgery to meet with the bariactric nurse to watch a video on post op care. It was in the afternnoon, I had just had lunch and when the weighed me, I was 1/2 lbs more. The surgeon canceled my surgery. In the end, i was glad I had the chance to lose some more weight. I really feel that it was instrumental in my recovery. I am a week and have and half post op and I have lost 18 lbs so far. Kaiser WLA was great, I have no complaints!Hi I was sleeved at Kaiser West LA. My surgeon was Dr. Casillas. It took me approximately 2 months after my consult with the surgeon to be called by the scheduler to get a surgery date. It has been great so far. I'm a week and a half post op. I can tell you as far as the weight loss, if you are assigned to Dr. Casillas, do NOT gain any weight or he will reschedule. I gained 1/2 lb and he canceled my surgery and I was put back on the surgery appt wait list. Which by the way took another 2 months to get a surgery date another 2 months away. All in all, West LA is great as well as Dr. Casillas. No regrets here!You look amazing! WOWCongrats! Wishing you a great recovery..........
