  3. Everyone is different. My dad lost 45 pounds in 25 days... I think it depends on who you are.
  4. Hey Jerry, So glad you survived the accident. I am a truck driver and believe me, I have seen hundreds of accidents and the motorcyclists NEVER fair well... you are a lucky man. I am having my surgery in Feb. also. I wont know the exact day until wednesday... I have been on a low carb, high protein diet for 4 months. My pre op diet is only 2 days of liquids. Hope to see you on the losers bench.
  5. The fact that you live with a man who treats you so poorly is disgusting.

  7. You are trying to discredit her experience by stating that if she doesn't know how to spell her doctors name she probably didn't do enough research. Get off your high horse and let the woman vent.
  8. YOU ARE DEHYDRATED !!! GET 64OZ OF FLUID A DAY, IF YOU ARE REALLY FEELING BAD, GET TO THE ER AND GET AN IV TO REHYDRATE.
  9. I live in Sac too. Having surgery on the 9th at Kaiser Richmond.
  10. Wouldn't that be a riot?! My birthday is Jan 8, I would love to be sleeved by my birthday. :present:
  11. I don't believe in food funerals. I had 744 calories on thanksgiving day, and I am down 2 more pounds... I find out my surgery date on Dec. 7.
  12. So the saying is true... you get what you pay for. It blows my mind when people take short cuts with their healthcare. Most people won't bat an eye to pay 17,000 for a new car, but they only want to pay 5,000 for a sleeve. :banghead:
  13. I started this journey in 8/1/11. I have Kaiser (Richmond) and after taking a few classes, seeing the psych and the Nut, I have my pre op 12/7/11. I was told to take a week to 10 days off work to heal (more if I was a lumberjack, lol). My father started this journey in September and he is self pay and is having his surgery on 12/15/11. I think the average time is 3 to 6 months...
  14. I am 42 and not sleeved yet... but December 7 is my pre op appt. so I guess I will find out my surgery date then. Welcome to the journey.
