I have been seeing Dr Kemmerling and am hoping to be sleeved in October. Would love to chat with you anytime. I have a friend who was sleeved by Dr Kemmerling 2 years ago and she is doing great!

I'm familiar with him. My sister in law had her lap band by him. I met him as well.

I never had heard of this option until until I met with my docs. Very glad I chose it.

Good luck to you on your journey. Today I find out hopefully anyway- My date :)

Hi!

I am fairly new to this forum and live in Janesville, WI. I am getting sleeed on Oct. 30th by Dr. Garcia in Tijuana, MX. I'm super excited and nervous at the same time!

I would love to keep in contact with you all and share stories and tips. This is such a big decision and change in our lives that having people who understand what we are going through is such a blessing as I know I will definitely need advice and support. :)

Good luck to everyone out there and I can't wait to start this journey to a NEW ME!! :) It's been way too long hiding behind my insecurities. I am ready to work hard and play hard and achieve my new goals.

Good luck everyone!

Hi, I will be getting sleeved by Dr. Selwyn in Stevens Point. I just love him! He takes a philosophical approach and is very easy to talk to. Good luck to everyone on here! :)

I heard Dr. Selwyn is a great doctor. I chose to go with aspirus because my insurance required a center of excellence. I had my gallbladder out at St. Michaels and my experience there was awesome. Good Luck!

      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.
