Hi - I am from San Diego and had my consultation yesterday (Wed) and rec'd my date today - Oct. 21!!! That is only 3 weeks away! Next week I go to have a few tests. I will be on a two week fast. I am so excited and nervous. I will have my surgery at UCSD w/Dr. Horgan. I met there staff and they seemed very nice and supportive. Has anyone used them?

TIA

How are you doing since surgery? I will be having my surgery October 8th. I am getting a little nervous but excited. What kind of diet did you have to go on before surgery?

Actually, I have my first appointment with Dr. Horgan next Weds Dec 3rd. I'm so glad i came across your profile. I haven't found anyone in the San Diego Area. Let alone with the same Doc. Can you please let me know how the staff at the office and hospital was like? How did you hear about Dr. Horgan? hope we can become buddies....

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
