OK'd by PCP

I am just getting home from the my regular doctor. We discussed her writing a letter for me and her feelings about WLS. She supports me but also cautions me to view this is a serious lifestyle modification. She has had 6 patients in her practice that have ate themselves through a gastric bypass. She frankly put it, mashed potatoes and cheeseburgers won't cut it.

I explained to her that I have done extensive research over the last year and that this is probably the most informed decision I have ever made in my life.

She seemed comfortable with everything and will have my letter ready on Monday.

Next step, consultation with the surgeon on 5 May.
