Thank you!

You're right - the waiting for things to get going is killing me. LOL I'm actually excited to get to the start of the pre-op diet on the 27th.

Dr. Stan Hoehn is doing the surgery.

You're surgery date will be here before you know it!!! Dr. Hoehn did my surgery too on Sept. 12. It took me 8.5 months from starting this process till my surgery but it is done now and I can start started on the improved me.

Dr. Kowalski did mine on Sept 12 also! how much have you lost?

13 pounds since my surgery, 22 since the start of the liquid diet. 37 total since I started this journey in January of this year. How are you doing?

19 pounds before surgery and 16 after (as of 4 days ago, could be more now). yesterday was the first really rough day I have had. I just wanted a hot potato or a steak. I was cranky and frustrated. but feeling better this morning. I know in the long run, it is just a matter of waiting past the cravings. Overall, it has been a good journey.
