My name is Monique. My surgeon was Dr. Dean Mikami at OSU Hospital. Everyone in the bariatric department were very nice and made my stay easy. Even the housekeepers were pleasant. They also did 3 follow-up calls afer I came home. i highly recommend.

Dr. Oliver Varban at the University of Michigan Hospital. Great doc and great supporting staff. I had surgery on Monday, released Wednesday. He came by daily to check on how I felt and if I had any questions. At least one or more of his staff would stop by as well. This is in addition to the nurses that were already assigned. They seem to genuinely care about your health. Great team.

I had my sleeve surgery at the Nuffield Hospital Brentwood, UK. My surgeon was Mr Yashwant Koak. He and the surgical team were absolutely brilliant!

My surgeon is Dr. Sebastian Eid from Advanced Laprascopic Associates at Paramus, NJ. I stood 2 days at Jersey Medical Center at Jersey City, NJ. Several people I know had Dr. Eid or the other doctors in this medical group. My doctor had the grace of a GOD when he did my gastric sleeve. I 'am so happy with the outcome.

My surgeon was Dr. Anthony Pucci of Advanced laparoscopic Specialists in NY/NJ. I had the surgery at Englewood Hospital in New Jersey and was there for 2 nights. The Dr., the office staff, the hospital nurses and assistants were phenomenal! So caring and helpful through it all. So happy I chose him!

      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.
