Hi Jill I was just doing a search on Dr. Randall and found your post. I was wondering how you made out? I have been going through all the hoops with him lately and am aiming at a Feb. surg. date. I was hoping you could tell me how everything went for you. Thanks for your time.

Hi, Well I'm Almost At My Anniversary Date And Have Lost A Total Of 40 Lbs In A Year. I've Been Extremely Happy With The Way Things Have Gone. Surgery Was A Breeze.. I Was Back To Work In 5 Dys. I Have Had Literally No Complications Other Than What They Tell You To Expect-i've Vomitted Sometimes If I Take Too Much Or Eat Too Fast. If I Excercised More I Probably Would Have Lost More But I Just Dont Have The Time! I'm Sure You'll Do Fine, Just Always Expect To Be Late At His Office - He's Never On Time!! Best Of Luck..let Me Know How It Goes.

I did end up having my surgery with Dr. Randall on July 13th and I feel great. I havent had a fill yet because he is going on vacation and he doesn't want to give me my first fill before he leaves incase of any complications, so now I have to wait till September 15th.

      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.
