I completely agree and at this moment I will make sure that I keep that in my prayers. New Focus.....Being blessed, excited, healthier and happier

I truly understand the regret. I have my moments still but I keep telling myself that if I could have taken the weight off I would not have had the surgery, but there are still times I wish I would have tried harder and not had the surgery. Cheers to the end result and to better days =) I am glad you are feeling better and I am looking forward to your wonderful post of nothing but good and happy results.

I agree with most that you will have to weight your options. I had a great surgery but minor complications with exhuasting and dehydration. I could not have delt with moving and healing at the same time. But truly its to each their own. I am eight weeks out and it is a very emotional journey. I am also sorry for your situation but I just have the best feeling that you will be fine with any choice you make.

Happy Saturday everyone. I was online looking at Jamba Light smoothies and I feel that this is something that I can have, but I wanted to know if anyone else has tried smoothies during liquid phase. I hate this part, but I know it will be over soon - Katrina

We had the same exact feelings. I had a friend ask me couple of days out of surgery should she go for it and my answer was "NO". I am almost six weeks out from surgery on Monday, and now my answer is "YES". I had a really rough start but now I can see clearly now the rain is gone You will get there....Just hang on in there.

Just wonderning because I know that doctors have their different paths for their WLS patients.

I thank you all and truly appreciate your input....It has truely been helpful

Thank you bunches fellow Banana Baby

I used Dr David Kim as well. My surgery has went well. I did not do well on the pre op diet but my surgery was excellent. I had my surgery on 11/22 and I am down 17 pds. The only thing that I would have liked to happen different was to see Dr Kim after my surgery. I figured that it was because it was the holidays but I am not sure. The most important thing was the surgery and I feel as if he has done an excellent job. And Dr Kim is also a Center of Excellence physician.

You've already weathered the hard part of the storm to get your appoval.....I know the cancellation was disappointing but hang in their your sleeve is right around the corner.... Katrina

Sleeved on 11/22 Surgery Weight 217 Current Weight 202

Also, I had the surgery out of town and I have had to take a trip to my local ER. It was great. I was pumped full of fluids to the point I was a little puffy but I felt so much better...

I was sleeved on 11/22 as well. My doctor prescribe a liquid only diet and I can not have eggs until 12/19. I know that each doctor has their own recommendations but maybe it's too soon and was the reasoning for you voimiting. I hope it gets better for you. The only thing that keeps me going right now is the fact that I have lost 15 pds since surgery.
