Hello There!

I live in NE Dallas and I was just sleeved on the 30th of April. Everthing is working out great with no complications.

Whos your surgeon? Mine is Dr. Kim and I have surgery 5/20 too.

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.

From Lubbock. Had my surgery 3/6/13 in Wichital Falls with Dr. Finnel. I'm down 60 lbs. Very happy!
