  1. I am on day 13. And starving but I am looking towards the reward I get in the end....
  2. I too am starving. I never realized how addicted to food I am until it was taken away. Today am on day thirteen. Easter morning no candy from the baskets, no great and yummy Easter dinner, but it is so worth it. I am having surgery Tuesday by Dr.Kim in Dallas. I would hate to lose my hard earned money because I cheated. So it is normal to crave all the foods around us, but be strong it will be your turn soon. Kim
  3. I am Dr. Kim's patient too. My big day is Tuesday!!!! Please respond so we can be sleeve buddies. Dooter has given me so much advise.
  4. I am twelve days out tomorrow. Tuesday is my big day! I am starving for things I can't have. Family eating wing stop and I fixing Easter baskets and I want to eat everything!!!!! We can do this! The last thing we want is to be opened up and then denied surgery!!

Thanks for listening.
