Recommended Posts

who have you guys used and been happy with or have a consult with and then decided you didn't care for.... I keep thinking doctor Kim is 1 of the better surgeons but I have gone to his office 4 * and had four bad experiences and I really do not think I want to use him. might be a good surgeon but I want to make sure I have a good overall comprehensive care package and I don't care for any 1 in his office I always feel rushed and like they don't have time to inform or educate me.... I have a consult with Nicholson in Dallas on Monday..... I know there are lots of good doctors out there I really want a team that will really help me through this after the surgery, I just know I'm going to need a really good active support group, and just at the comfortable calling the office asking for help or how to do something or what to eat or suggestions etc.... there are so many doctors so many commercials I don't know.... and then last night I heard about Baylor grapevine matin for first time..... I'm open to other suggestions.... does anyone go to counseling or therapy to help them with some of the changes n eating or just changes in your life??? I guess food has really been my love affair.... I know I will miss my favorite foods..... and honestly eating grilled chicken everyday for my life does not sound that great.... I hate chicken.... I have tried eating it this week for lunch, and dinner just not tasty lol.... I love my Mexican food it will b missed

      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.
