The Journey Has Begun
Feb 18, 2010
I have visited with my surgeon this week, Dr. Kowalski from KC Bariatric Center. The visit went very well even though I was nervous. I was so worried that I would feel like I just entered an assembly line of people wanting the same goal. After first arriving, filing out additional paperwork, they asked me for my Non-Refundable $500 program fee. Was this just a way for them to make money and do they really care about the patients?After meeting Dr. Kowalski and Jan, my case manager, I felt much more relaxed. Could I really lose weight and look like the people I am so envious of?
I have appointments now with my Dietician, Psych, EGD is scheduled, and met with my Cardiologist today. My cardiologist was very encouraged that I was going down this path. But when I mentioned doing the gastric sleeve vs lap band, he was concerned as this was a permanent thing and no going back. Am I doing the right thing?
