I went to the one off Main st. Www.trueresults.com. My insurance required 6 months of visits before my surgery. My first visit was in February and my surgery was 9/10/12. They give you a lot of guidance. My surgeon was Dr Hollis. He was a great surgeon. I wasn't real impressed with his office staff (different office than True Results). Just had my first fill with True Results 10/9 and they were wonderful.

I had the same exact experience. His staff was not rude.... just not keeping up with stuff like they were suppose to. Losing track of Dr visits. Made me drive 3 hours for Dr appointment and didn't call to tell me Dr. Hollis was out sick. Everything worked out now though. True Results is great!!

      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.
