WLS is not easy but it is so worth it Katie, the hardest part is the op and then the frist few weeks but every day/week will be better then the next. Good luck and God bless you!

Hi, Katie! I'm having surgery with Howard Lederer on Dec. 13th, a few days before you, and like you, I have a lower BMI also under 40 and no major co-morbidities. I just want you to know that Howard is a GREAT surgeon and that you are going to love him more and more as you get to know him and see how caring he is! My family can't say enough good things about him and his staff. You'll love his nurse Terri also, she's such a sweetie! Best of luck and I'll see you on 'the other side'! If you need anything or have any questions, please, e-mail me! Our whole family is having the surgery, lol, my boyfriend Ryan had it back in March, my dad had it last month, I go in on the 13th and my mom is having her consultation with Howard tomorrow and then submitting to insurance. He calls us his 'expert family' lol Anyhow, best of wishes!
