Cris, Good luck to you with your surgery! You are in excellent hands at BTC. I had surgery 11 weeks ago, too. Dr. Berkowitz did my surgery but I have heard nothing but good things about your doctor! I now feel like I never had surgery except I can't eat very much! I am still amazed. I have a normal appetite but no matter how hungry I am, my eyes are always bigger than my stomach. It is great. I wish you good health and good luck with your recovery. Just follow BTC's plan (yes, it is a little tough, but you can do it) and you will do great. Take care, A WLS friend,
