My relative was to have the surgery with a guillermo Alvarez in Piedras Negras,Mx and sent the coordinator a $1,000 deposit...he went to see his own doctor in Manhatten and was told that he had a bleeding issue and NOT to have the procedure..he emailed the coordinator who told him that guillermo Alvarez REFUSED to return the $1,000 deposit( even tho there was a potentially serious medical issue at the time)clearly, the coordinator DID NOT want to lost her FEE and REFUSED to return the $1,000 to my relative( who is a struggling student )There is something called: ETHICS?It seems that it does not exist in this doctor's practice.?the coordinator should have RETURNED the $1,000 to my relative....keeping blood money is NOT right or ethical......I would NEVER go there or suggest anyone else to....even though....there is such desperation to have the surgical procedure......I am sure there are other better and more ethical programs,doctors and coordinators out there.....that behave in a humane manner.....don;t buy into the hype and glitzy self promoting websites.....because, all they are.... are self promoting....and they prey on the most Vulnerable.........

      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.
