I'm in the process with Dr. Goldstein. Did you have the LB with him? How did it go?

I did have surgery with him!! He is really great....all business but I am ok with that. I was banded on September 11 2013, and i have had two fills. So far I am down 56 pounds and I am happy with my decision to go through with surgery.

My issue with him really has nothing to do with him, but his office assistant. Just a heads up-she never returns phone calls. She does not do what she says she will do, as far as looking into insurance or whatever the case may be. You have to become a huge pain and call her all the time in order to get results. As a patient, this is a HUGE turn off, as it is her you deal with most of the time!!! So just be prepared if you haven't already discovered this about her.

I've been in the waiting room on more than one occasion and had conversations with other patients about her.

Good luck in your journey!!!! If you have any questions or if there is anything at all I can do, please let me know!

Does he use the same office assistant as Dr. Neff? I have a hard time reaching her as well

      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.
