Saw Dr. K. today. I am finally losing weight. My scale says 45 lbs his a bit less than that.
But people are noticing and I can see it too. Maybe I am not the girl who the DS didn't work for!
We are staying in a fancy hotel for the holiday this week and this morning I had a huge thrill. The Terry cloth bathrobe from the hotel actually fit me! It even closed in front! I felt pretty good wearing it down to the pool.
Plus driving down the state of California yesterday for 7 hours the seat belt did not continually try to strangle me. This is a first.
Love Dr. K. He is completely charming. He told me to eat 2 grams of protein for 1 gram of carbohydrate. He also said recovery is a full 18 months and things will get better as time goes by. Such a pleasure. So glad he is my surgeon. I had a revision from VBG to DS on 8/20/12.

Hello Mary Helen,
I am the lady that came to visit you in the hospital. So glad that you're doing wonderful. Dr K is really skilled beyond comprehension.
I had liver complications that were a serious total surprise and two operations that same day. 3 hours on the table yada yada. I am healing wonderful with all his expertise almost two months out.
xr7conv and whit ... you are in great hands.

My father had the DS with Dr. K. My parents and I both loved him and Ms. Diana. They are both the biggest sweethearts ever! Dad had surgery April 17, 2012 and has already lost over 120 lbs. so proud of him!!!!
