My doctor is Dr. David C. Johson from Arizona Weight Loss Solutions in Phoenix, AZ. I am currently on my hi-protien preop diet in preperation for the surgery. It hasn't been too bad, I like protein and haven't seemed to miss the carbs (too much anyway).
The reason I decided to do this surgery is that when I was 27, I was diagnosed with a rare type of leukemia which is cancer of the blood. I went through 10 intense months of chemo treatments, lost all my hair, was incredibly sick, had a few complications, but made it through and am alive and healthy as a horse today! My oncologist has given the OK for me to undergo this procedure.
So, with a new outlook on life I want to be as healthy as possible and live a long life (not to mention wear cuter clothes too!).
So...the countdown is on to 8/6/10...
