My surgery has been changed to the bypass because my insurance would not pay for the sleeve. It is still December 4th.

Charrison, from what I hear everything is the same in terms of diet, etc.

Yeah, I know, but I really did not want my intestines rerouted, so I am disappointed about that. But I was approved, so at least I will be able to lose weight.

Hi! I actually switched doctors. I'm having surgery Dec. 3rd with Dr. Alvarez

Did something happen with Aceves that made you switch doctors?

Hi! Nope! I'm sure Dr. Aceves is an excellent Dr. I've heard wonderful things about him, his staff, and Almater hospital. Dr. Alvarez was just a better fit for me. Travel -wise and research wise, I decided to go with him. But! My friend from church went to Aceves four years ago and still maintains his weight loss of almost 200 lbs!! I just had the procedure Monday by Dr. Alvarez and I couldn't be happier! I know you'll do great! God bless you on your journey!

I'm Dec 14 in TJ with Dr. Jesus Ortiz @ Mi Doctor!

How are y'all doing with the pre-op? I'm either 100 on or off the wagon. I've lost only 7lbs since last Monday, but I've cheated. Making a new start today, and I'm not messing around anymore!!

Glad to see 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.
