Consultation-done!

Apr 11, 2009

We had a great trip on Wednesday and got there with plenty of time to have lunch prior to the consultation.  Dr Anthone was really nice and knowledgable and answered all of my questions.  He has set a requirement of 10 pound weight loss prior to surgery so I am now avoiding all potatoes, rice, pasta and breads.  Since I am a carbaholic, it is sort of difficult for me but I am so excited to be within reach of surgery, I am pumped.  I also got all of my pre-op orders, so I will be seeing my PCP on the 20th to get those things going.  I had a psych eval when i was pursuing lap band but Dr Anthone says it needs to be DS specific so I will make an appointment with the same psychiatrist to have a new evaluation.  I am so excited!!!   My daughter and I went to the grocery store yesterday and got a lot of things I can eat since I am dieting.   Life is going so great right now...and I have already lost 4 pounds!
