Yes Dr Toby Broussard at Weight Wise in Edmond has a great rate. I was going to use Dr Ariel Ortiz at OCC but after the discounts from Weight Wise, I'll be spending the same price as mexico including flight so I'm staying local.

I was going to go to Mexico if my insurance denied me. But, thankfully I didn't have to. I had surgery at Bailey's on 2/21. I feel so blessed to have been able to stay here. Good luck to everyone....

Yes, Kimmy, I am doing great. I went to my first post op appt yesterday. I have lost 28 pounds. That is the preop diet and the two weeks after surgery. Dr. Katsis said it was "excessive". Lol......He said I needed to eat more. I have NEVER been told that in my life. I can't eat any more, that's all I can hold. How are things going with you? Good, I hope. Thanks for asking....keep in touch...

I'm doing great Megs! Welcome Alisha! We have a great group of Okie's......Megs, I finally found a Protein Drink I can drink. I was so excited. I have spent a ton of money trying to find something. I tried the Premier Protein from Sam's and to me, it just tastes like chocolate milk. I was scared to death that I would be bald headed in about 4 months because of not getting my Protein. Hope things are going good with everyone!!

      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.
