hello I am in Jacksonville, Florida and I actually had the experience of going to memorial hospital a few weeks ago for a nausea issue because it was considered a center of excellence for bariatrics. It was the worst experience of my life and i have since i only go to baptist at the beaches

That's not good. Did they not treat you good or did they know what was going on?

I jut had my surgery at Memorial with Dr. Baptista. I had a good experience there. My only complaint (which is kinda my fault) is they had such an issue getting my IV started. Two nurses had to try and after being stabbed 6 times they finally got one to take. But my veins are rollers so that didn't help on top of not eating for 4 days. Best of luck. The nurses in recovery are really nice except for the waking you up in the middle of the night to check your blood pressure.

Also if anyone is going to spend the night with you tell them to bring a comfy pillow cause the chairs they have SUCK and the bed they have you lay on moves constantly. I actually slept in the recliner most of the time and my poor husband in the other chair they have.

I just had my surgery performed by Dr. Webb on Tuesday. It was great. My nurses weren't bad either.

      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.
