Surgeon Testimonial

Aniceto Baltasar, M.D.
Dr B is fantastic, caring, measure and calm. he took great care of me in Spain, especially when I had complications which meant I had to be admitted to the general hospital. he came in to see me everyday, even on sundays.rnkeeps in contact with you and reminds you to get your labs done.

Had a Jolly Christmas
on December 26, 2007 2:06 pm
We went to tampa to stay with some friends for Christmas. It was lovely to be around people we know as it is our first Christmas living in the states and we were a bit homesick. I had lovely seabass on a bed of mushroom, onion and pancetta. It was glorious and I guess it would be pretty Ds friendly, lots of butter and protein!! Went for a swim and lounged around by the pool all day which was nice. Went to a fab restaurant in Clearwater, right on the Gulf on Chrsitmas eve and had a lovely time. Nice to get dressed up and be a bit of a girl!! pretty much live in Flip flops around here most of the time!! We had fresh sushi, made to order and then macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi with wasabi mashed potatoes. One of my friends had the snow crab and i had to taste that too!!
I am off to pompano beach on friday to see some friends and while we are there we will be stocking up at Bariatric eating on some post surgery pouch friendly protein (i've been sampling them as a pre op, although i know my tastes could change dramatically after!). getting it while we are there will save on the shipping costs!! Well only 27 days till my surgery, not that I'm counting you understand!!! LOL
I'm taking the laptop with me to Spain so I'll keep you all posted as to my progress!!

date for surgery
on December 22, 2007 7:12 am
I just got an emailf rom Dr Baltasar to say that he can do my Ds on 22nd Jan at 3pm. I am so excited and scared all at the same time!! I have been sorting out flights and hotel accommodation for our trip to spain. I also have to sort out dog sitting for my 2 girls while we are away, that is a bit of a worry too!
I can't believe that this will actually happen now after so many false starts, but here goes!!!
I weigh 213 pounds this morning, and I would love to weigh 137-140, but we'll see what happens on that front. All I know is that I'm not going to be buying anymore new clothes now until after surgery!!
