Any Texas Gastric Sleeve Buddies?

[Huntingnurse 510]

I was stalled for a month because I was watching carbs. Went to the doc and she said no no no 800 calories a day or less. I promise you literally the very next day my stall broke wide open. Losing 3 pounds every week for 3 weeks.

They want u eating 800 cals or less??

Dr. Kim and his staff are the best! You will not be disappointed.

Its getting down to the wire no, lets pray you're right! I only have a one week pr-op diet so it hasn't started yet. It wont start until tomorrow.

My surgery was done perfectly. I had no need for pain medicine, no throwing up, no issues whatsoever. The preop diet was kind of hard the first few days, but it gets easier as time goes by. Just try to take it easy and not be overly active. You'll be very weak if you do because of your calorie intake. You're lucky to just have a one week preop. Mine was two and they were thinking about three (they crossed that out on my sheet).

I'll be praying for you.

I can tell you I consulted with a few doctors and was wheeled into the OR with complete confidence in my decision of picking Dr Kim. I was anxious to get it over with, but I wasn't the least bit nervous or scared.
