I'vr never blogged before. then again I have never had WLS before either. I am scheduled in November 2010. The seminar I went to was a real eye opener. I knew it was time to do something about my health. I was approved by my insurance company right away.That is as long as I did a 6 month food study. I thought I could never be disicplined enough to get through that. But I did. Before my first appointment I lost 13 pounds. Total, I lost 36 pounds before going on a 2 week liquid diet that Dr. M requires before surgery. ( This shrinks the liver before surgery to help things along. ) I've been on that for 3 days and have lost another 9 pounds. Total of 45 pounds so far. That's before surgery. I am already in size 18 and can put on a 16, but it isn't comfortable. I am looking forward to being healthy again.
