Just walked in the door from a week in Mexico and couldn't wait to weight myself. OMG OMG OMG... I'm soooooo excited I've lost 20 lbs. since starting Pre-Diet & I'm now 5 day Post-Op. Thank you Dr. Garcia, Hanna, Rosie, Samual Sr. & Samual Jr. This was the best gift I've ever given myself. Great experience!!!

I am going to Dr. Kelly in Mexico a week from Tuesday and his price is $5500.00, that includes everything except your airline tickets to and from San Diego. I had a hard time finding his current contact info do let me know if you want it.

      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.
