Anyone schedule with Dr. Aceves Jan 31 - Feb 4?



Recommended Posts

Hi all! Ok, so Nina and I were able to get me on the schedule for Monday, February 1. I'm getting so excited. I've been saving up and getting ready for this in my head for a LONG time! Can't wait. Hoping to find some who might also be there the same days as me. If you will be coming in at that time, or already there, let me know, say hi! I'd love to hear from you.

Here's to ALL of our sleeves! YA! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Hey there. I will not be there, but I will be praying for you. I am excited to track your surgery with you. I see you have been through so much with your Band, and I know you are excited to get Sleeved. Good luck and as they say in Norway...Lykke Til (Good Luck)

Are you ready to hit the road? Good luck!

Never been more ready. I feel really good. Went out for one last tasty drink tonight, before I hit the hay tonight, take dog to the Vet tomorrow, finish packing, and I'm OUT on Sunday morning! Really, knowing where I'm "going" (having been to Mexicali before, been through the whole "process" with Dr. Aceves, etc)... I'm ready. Can't wait, scared, but super excited! I hope we get a chance to meet before I leave, Firefly! :thumbup1:

Hi Phatman/Rob (love the tag name, BTW!) :smile:

Thank you for your kind words and support. I really do appreciate it. I will keep you all posted as best as I can whilst in Mexicali. I'm bringing the laptop, so I should be able to post. :thumbup1: Thank you for the prayers and good vibes, I really believe I need it, with all the madness of this being my third surgery (band in, band out, sleeve). I cannot wait to get to the other side of this sleeve!

Here's to you as well, and your journey! I see you're half way across the world, but these "interwebs" (LOL) bring us together. It's very comforting.

Lykke Til to you, too! :thumbup:

      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.
