That's great, my decision came down to how many he does a day and his recovery house, im glad to hear he changed the recovery place though that's probably why he was more the when my friend went. I'm glad you had a great experience, happy weight loss :)

Brenda I'm scheduled for surgery on the 28th of this month. So your complete recovery was at the hotel? I thought they had a house you went to for recovery. I was only told the first night was at the special rate. I am excited and can't wait. I've waited for this for 3 years!

I was very worried about coming to this doctor beacuase of the online boards having so many bad things to say about it but honestly now that im here im glad I did. Someone said after she paid her miney the corrdinator stop calling and I will say thats definatly not what happend to me. They calld to chek on me so many times I started screening there calls They were very nice and took care of all my needs.

Congratulations and welcome to VST! You will find it very helpful and uplifting to be here. I was sleeved Dec. 6' date=' 2012 and I am still a newbie here but I have gained some knowledge and found comfort from the people here. I live in a small town where there is no access to support groups so this is my support. It has been very helpful. Good luck on your journey and remember, don't get discouraged - get busy and enjoy life![/quote']

      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.
