I am from Lexington, so not too far away. I'm seeing Dr. Bauman in Concord. I won't be able to have mine until Nov or after due to completing the 6 months of PCP visits. By the time I get to have mine you all will have mastered life after being sleeved. Hopefully you will have some good pointers for me! ;)

That's awesome you're getting all of that done in one day! It took me over a month to finish up all those appointments! Good luck!

I'm being sleeved by Dr. Bauman on August 13th! I live in Concord, so you'll have to keep me updated on your surgery status, maybe we can meet up when you're in town sometime :)

I live in Rock Hill, SC and work in Charlotte. Having my surgery done by Dr. Voellinger @ Presbyterian Main. Going for H.Pylori and barium swallow (upper GI) tomorrow. That will be the final step, then insurance. Should be ok for surgery date either mid-August or mid-September. I work for Presbyterian/Novant and we are the hospital for the Democratic National Convention, so cannot take off of work the 1st week in September due to that. So if I can't have a surgery date for the 2nd week of August, I will have to wait until the 2nd week in September. Very cool to have so many around me with close surgery dates :)

      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.
