Seminar

I went to the required informational seminar last night for Dr. Nick Nicholson. I felt like clapping when he walked into the room. It was like meeting a celebrity after watching so many YouTube videos about him and doing so much research. Everything everyone says about him is true. He is a very kind, funny, tell you how it is type of doctor. He didn't sugar coat anything and was very transparent 

He talked about the general stuff...how he started doing bariatric surgeries, the types of surgeries along with the pros and cons about each one. He also talked about the 3 deaths he's had over the coarse of operating on over 9,000 patients. 

Interesting facts:

1.  98% of people fail long term on diets. That means I only have a 2% chance of succeeding on a diet long term. No wonder I've done so many diets and still fat!! 

He spoke for about 2 hours and made sure everyone's questions were answered. I was very impressed. 

Now I wait to get a one on one consult. I'm so anxious to get the ball rolling. I know he's the surgeon I want and I know this is the surgery I want!!
