Recommended Posts

Hello I know exactly what you mean, I got a plication in August 2010 and have not lose anymore what since September 2010, I wish I live closer as I would be going to see him and ask what can I do now, I spent all this money and haven't lose anymore weight, still watch what I eat, now exercise as people know I have gone for surgery and I haven't lost any weight. I wish now that I would of had other surgery as I spent a lot of money for what no weight lose, Would Dr, Roderigues in Juarez Mx help me send me a ticket to fly down so he could look at the surgery and see if it is working..or offer me help, I was told that I would lose at least 10 lbs NOT TRUE, I was looking forward to that, very disappointed in Gastric Vertical Plication Surgery!!!

.

KATHY, DID DR. ROD DO YOUR PLICATION SURGERY?

Hi,

First, sorry you are going through this. I'm wondering if it's because you were eating dinner. I am only a month out but I notice that I can eat more at night than during the day. I also seem to be able to eat more when I'm at home than when I'm at restaurants, I'm not sure why.

Maybe do the 5 day pouch test and see if you can gauge your tummy size? You can google it and get info.

Good luck to you!!

I am the exact same way. I have a very small Breakfast and lunch along with a couple of small Snacks throughout the day and I am full after each meal. But, at dinner, I can eat much more before I feel full. I have an appointment with my surgeon tomorrow and I this is one of the things I am going to ask him about. Also there are days when I don't feel much restriction. Then there are days when I have a lot of restriction.

      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.
