Hey does anyone have any experience with him? About his pre opp diet? About how long it take to get to set a date. And what kind of experience you've had thus far. Please let me know...it sure would help me in my search for those qualities in a search for the right doctor. thanks ahead a time. I really appreciate it.

Hi--Just saw your post. I got my band in Mexico in January but go to Dr. Cottam's office for fills. I love the office, the staff, the nutritionist. Dr. Cottom was definately very professional and competent. I saw him for my first fill and he was a little cold. I saw his colleague Dr. Richards for my second and she was a lot more personable. Let me know if you have any questions about them.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
