I had my consult today with Dr Kim in Dallas. Excited!
I forgot to ask a few things I was hoping you could answer.
How long was it before you could carry weight? My son is about 20 lbs and isn't walking yet...so I'll need to plan accordingly for help with him.
I'll be on a liquid diet for 2 wks before surgery, Optifast, I think it's called. How does this get made? Is it mixed with Water or milk? Do you have to use a blender? (We may go out of town during the time I would need to be on the pre-op diet, so want to know what I would need to take with me.)
I can schedule as soon as 6/29, but I may be leaning towards mid-July since we do have that trip planned.
I am so ready for a new me!!! Dr was really nice. BMI was a horrible 43.3, but at least I have no other medical conditions, so something to be grateful for.
