How is your recovery thus far?

It's going awesome. I've lost 40lbs since I started the whole process in June. Since surgery my activity levels have improved. I went out dancing last weekend and was able to dance 3 songs with out getting tired. Which was a new for me I was lucky to get thru 1/2 of 1.

No I do not. I would like to but I just started a new job working 2nd shift.

I have my appointment scheduled for Jan 6th, decided against a pre-holiday surgery. I am having it done with Dr. Tishler, so far very happy - any comments about him? The office seems great and very supportive.
