My husband, daughter and myself had surgery with dr. Garcia on dec 24th at Mi hospital. We had a great experience, with no problems at all. Dr. Garcia and his team are truly amazing. You are making a good choice.

i was sleeved by dr. Fernando Garcia in t.j. exactly 11 months ago. he is great the staff

is kind. you will be safe i promise. my advice is LISTEN to what they tell you. if you are

not hungary after great. dont worrie. just dont over eat or eat the wrong food. no diet

cokes no alcohol. and you will look great and feel better. honestly i love being sleeved.

but its still hard. im hungary, and fight eating right. is it easier than before yes.

      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.
