Hi everyone!

I am in Howell Mi, Dr. is KATZ I am having the sleeve on Nov 24th and scared to death but excited too. Anyone else have KATZ?? Surgery is at St. John Macomb-Oakland in Madison Heights.

I had my sleeve done by Dr. Katz 11/21/2013. Everything went great and he is very caring. My 1 year anniversary is coming up very soon. I have lost 100 lbs and only have 3 more to go until goal. Good luck, you won't regret it!

@Mention Thanks so much! How long did he make you do the Pre and Post liquid diet? ? Did you stay 1 or 2 days at the Hospital??

      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.
