How I arrived here

Jan 12, 2009

I have been considering weight loss surgery for approximately a year now.  I have researched and read about all the options.  After speaking with my Primary Care Doctor she recommended me to Dr. Hamn. 
I have attended seminars with a couple of friends and listened to the pre and post operative stories and experiences.
Now it was time to make a decision for myself.  I met with Dr. Hamn twice.  Within 30 days I decided to proceed, scheduled my pre-op test and surgery. 

I have decided to have the Gastric Sleeve WLS.  I feel that it is the right solution for me. I am nervous and excited at the same time.  This will be the first time I have had a surgery other than a shot of cortosone near the spine and sciatic nerve for swelling in my legs and ankles and pain in my legs. 

I have a wonderful, supportive husband and friends.  I look forward to my new lifestyle.

Ciao for now.
