  1. I'm 6' and currently at 280, I'd be trilled with anything under 200. I can tell you I don't feel smaller.
  2. I'm surprised so many of you are doing a liquid diet before the surgery. I was told just to do a modified Atkins diet 7-10 day before surgery. I decided to begin early, but no liquids diet until after surgery.
  3. I have my surgey scheduled for 4/29, so I'm just 2 days behind you. You ChunRenee and I will have to stay in touch, since ChunRenee just had her surgery. You can likely already tell I'm a terrible speller. I don't think this blog has spell check so please bare with me.
  4. I'm 47 and started the pre-op diet at 284. I had my first phone visit with Dr K last week. My surgery is scheduled for 4/29. I've lost 4 pounds on the pre-op diet so far. I've been down this road many times and the weight just comes back. I hope this time is different. My wife and I just got back from a cruise. I was lucky to get my big but into those tiny airplane seats. Before we even started the cruise my feet were killing me. I could just barley keep up with my wife. That's when we both decided if we were to continue traveling I had to so something. So this is where my journey begins. Looking forward to surgery, but a little nervous. Dr K seams great and I hope all goes well.
