I'm so excited for you. I can't wait to hear how everything goes with the surgery. That is too funny about being able to have a drink and Italian food before surgery. Now that's what I call a pre-op diet plan! :thumbup1:

Keep us up to date on your progress.

I think that I might have to try out this place in two weeks when I am down there. Nothing like a good margarita to help calm your nerves. My thoughts are with you today and please let us know how you are as soon as you are able. I can't wait to see this dr. that all of you keep talking about

Just was wonering what the cost of the sleeve was with Dr. Acceves?

I would love for my daughter to have it.

I had mine with Dr. Almanza at Jerusalem medical ctr.

While I love the personable care I received with Dr. Almanza and the staff I would rather my daughter was in a Hospital with the ICU as oppose to the surgical ctr of Jerusalem Medical Ctr.

Ishary,

I am having my procedure done for $8750 but the normal cost is $9700. I would give Nina a call or send her an email because you may be able to get the lower rate still. The reason that you want your daughter to go to Dr. Aceves is the reason that I chose him as well. I wish you luck in your journey

      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.
