Glad to hear your surgery was a success. HOpe you have a speedy recovery.

Thank you so much for all of your replies. It's so helpful. Thanks.

The nurse practitioner suggested I lose 10 lbs. as where the nurses giving the orientation and the nurse weighing me in at the beginning of the classes told me I should be fine because of the way I carry my fat. So I am going to try to lose the 10 lbs. before I see Dr. Le on the 16th. Did you have to do the liquid diet? Sorry I'm asking so many questions. I have a friend who has had the procedure but she did it to lose weight and is not diabetic, and second of all she is not being supportive of my decision. Well that's to bad for her...

Thank you. I have Dr. David Le as well. I've heard good thing about the S.S.F. facility. How long after you had your appointment with him did you have surgery? Thanks for your reply.

Hi I'm going thru the process myself. I'm going thru Kaiser S.S.F. I see the surgeon on July 16th. I've seen the phych. and all went well. Question for those of you who had the surgery in S.S.F. who was your doctor? How long were you in the hospital? Newbie, the best of luck to you.... We can stay in touch if you'd like.
