Re: good morning all...........i had orientation saturday and it went great.....

I am also pre-op at Fremont. I was given my goal weight at the

Consult meeting with the surgeon; that was about 6 weeks after

Orientation. He was flexible in choosing the highest documented

weight from the past few months as the " starting " weight on which to

calculate the 10%. This way any weight that you have lost recently

counts toward the 10%. (Some other facilities seem to use your weight

at the Orientation meeting.)

Now you should have the binder full of WLS info, which answers a lot

of questions. Which doctor led your group?
