  2. Good luck and try to get some sleep tonight, I know I wasn't able to sleep the night before but it was because i had finals due.
  3. I had mine done at Good Sam too on August 1st and Dr. Nguyen was my surgeon. He has a wonderful bedside manner and the staff at good Sam were great. It will go by really quick, I was really nervous the day of the surgery but everything went as planned and I'm 2 months post op and down a total of 107 lbs. and 53 lbs. is since my surgery. Just stay on point with your liquid diet, I know it's hard I had to do 3 weeks. Take it slow after the surgery and be careful with the morphine, that's what had me sick not my sleeve. Good luck and keep us updated

  10. I has the same craving and what I ended up doing 3 weeks out was to lick all the cheese of of 3 Doritos. I haven't had a craving since and really don't have a desire to eat them anymore. I didn't want to take the chance with the corn since I was getting sick every other day. I thought this was a place of no judgements and respect, everyone's journey is different and is to each their own.. Good luck JR
  11. Congrats..have a speedy safe recovery.

  21. Hi All, Im curently looking for a support group in San Francisco or in the peninsula. I am getting my surgery at Good Sam down in San Jose, they offer a support group twice a month the only issue is its a 2 hour drive round-trip. I would love to do the meeting but with a 9 month old and full time school it just doesnt work. Does anyone know where I can find a group? Thanks, Carlos
