Welcome MaryAnn

My sister just had surgery with Dr Rodriguez 2 1/2 weeks ago, she was VERY happy with everything. She said the hospital was great, and the care was wonderful!

Good luck to you, and keep us posted!

Hi there I was wondering if you can tell me how your sister is doing and how much weight has she lost now and how much can she eat at a time

thanks

Lisa

Hi everyone my name is MaryAnn and I am 23 years old. I am getting what is called a Super Sleeve July 12, 2010 in Tijuana Mexico by Dr. Rodriguez. There are not many on the site that has the Super Sleeve so I am hoping to keep everyone updated on how it goes. If anyone has had the Super Sleeve or knows anyone that has gotten it I would love to hear from you.

Right now I am in my Pre-op diet so I think it has really hit me that my Super Sleeve is only a week away!

Any advice you have on my packing, pre-op, or even post-op I would love to hear from you!

Thank you!

Thank you for replying back to me, sounds like you are doing pretty good on loosing weight so would you say you lost about 45 lbs in 2 months??

If you dont mind me asking , who was your doctor, and how much can you eat at one time?

Do you have any issues at all with plication??

Thanks again, Lisa

      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.
