Hi Snap...thank you and yes it was a pain lol but I stuck to my guns and carried on and here I am 4 wks away from surgery. And I didn't even use diet pills (which were my weakness). I'm having mine done at Kaiser in Fremont with Dr Chu.

I'm a patient of Dr. Richard Nguyen also. I finished all my appointments and got all my clearances. :D I'm scheduled to meet with him on April 4th to set a date for my surgery. My surgery will also be at Good Sam. I'm very nervous and still feel very unprepared for this major change that's gonna happen. Any thoughts, or advice you guys can give me would GREATLY be appreciated.

Thanks

Ya know...I was supposed to see Dr. Nyguen also but to my surprise Dr. Harai walked in the door. I'm surprised I didn't ask more questions but then again I'm at the mercy of a new doctor and a nervous experience of a volentary surgery. :(

his office sent me a letter last week about the move i assumed since he was my surgeon i would have went where he went. But today i got a letter from my insurance approving my april 4th visit with the new Dr. My insurance is anthem blue cross medi-cal. I dont know why they didnt inform me.

I don't know if its cause I'm on medi-cal or what but since i first started this i have been given very little information about anything infact the only thing I've been given was appointment slips. My aunt had the r n y surgery done in san francisco through kaiser and she was givin a binder packed with info! What's up with that?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
