Hi I know I'm pretty early to ask ,but is there anyone getting sleeved in November?

I'm traveling 7th Nov having surgery at the OOC with Dr Ortiz and then traveling back the 14th as he wants you to stay until the drain is out.

Hoping there are some others out there.

Yes IM having surgery on the 8th of November too, also with DR Ortiz. Im supose to get the Plication but I really would like to change to the sleeve. I just cant find enough info on the plication. IM hoping they will let me change. How is the diet going? Its really hard for me. Cant wait to hear from you! Marilyn

Hi great to know someone else will be doing this at the same time. Which hotel will you be at?

Preop sucks but I've nearly lost the 5%.

Hope to see you there.

      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.
