I'm from San Antonio but worked for a doctor who saw patients in Corpus Christi nice guy but only cared about money not patients. Have a site like Progressive that lets you contact 4 surgeons in Corpus at once. Figured it would be a good idea for folks to post their experiences using Facebook about each doctor. The site is called Corpus Christi Bariatric Guide

Feel free to let me know what it needs I'll change it. I want surgeons who are good but may not spend a ton of money or care about money to get extra screen time online so thats the goal. But don't worry they are all Center of Excellence facilities.

Hello y'all!! I'm Kristin from Calallen and I am scheduled for my Sleeve next week June 13, 2012. I have chosen Dr. Ramiro Cavazos out of San Antonio's Texas bariatric specialist. He also has done a fellowship study for bariatrics. So I feel confident in him to treat me right! :) I would love to meet some people for moral support and a possible work out buddy. Would be great to have monthly group meetings as well if we can find enough people! Good luck to everyone on this amazing journey and God bless!!

      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.
