In was at florence last week. Deborah and Pretty in Pink were correct. You can't go wrong with florence. I am so glad we got the opportunity to change. One MAIN thing with Florence was the call button. Mi doctors does not have it. Once I pushed the call button they were there. The nurses were so sweet and I didn't want for anything.

I wonder if Dr Garcia will start to move his surgerys to there - like I know there's other people on my day so I hope it doesn't muck them around if they're made to move. alma said it was no problem. Also I've asked if my friend and I can be first - I read one lady didn't go till almost 5 ... If we are first that gives us another day to heal as we are travelling quiet a lot after. We are also staying an extra night it TJ just to be sure.

Interesting, I didn't know we had an option, wasn't offered one, I was just booked at florence. And believe it or not, I was kinda disappointed because I had read so much more about Mi Doctor. But now I guess I'm in the better spot after all. Cool!

******FROM MY COORDINATOR******

THis is great that you have started a thread about the Florence Hospital, I will provide you with the 800 number to the hospital so you can include that on the forum. Yes it is quieter and nicer in my opinion but more than anything, it is a more equipped hospital. Thank you for starting the thread!! this is great

      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.
