Hi Marilyn,

There is another board on here that is just for plication patients.

I am a band patient looking into revision either the sleeve or sleeve plication.

You can also see Dr. Watkins' website http://www.cincyweightloss.com/

or Dr. Corvala at Angeles Health in Tijuana.

Youtube also has several videos from various doctors.

Who is your surgery with?

I'm hoping to have either Dr. Corvala or perhaps Dr. Cottam in Salt Lake City, UT perform mine

if I decide to do the plication.

Good luck to you

Has anybody had problems with the pre opt diet? My stomach is upset most of the time. I quit taken my meds and IM taking stomach meds now. What do they do if you dont loose 5-10% of your weight before surgery? IM having such a hard time. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Marilyn

      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.
