I had my RNY at NYU Langone by Dr. George Fielding. Super nice guy and really cares for his patients. I was in the hospital for 4 days and he came by every day to check on me. He has also been on Dr. Oz show many times. He even did Governor Christy surgery. Matter of fact I saw Governor Christy in his office a few weeks before my surgery and he sure has a lost a lot of weight.

My first impression was there is a lot of people in New Jersey who had bariatric Surgery....but on the flip side..."Man...there's a lot of Obese people in New Jersey"

Must be all that good ethnic food...REAL Italian restaurants, Jewish Deli's....I've been all around the country, the world for that matter...there is nothing like it (except NYC)....can you say "Pork Roll, egg and cheese on a hard roll"???

It's 3am...am I having head hunger?? It'll pass..and I will be at the gym at 5

I am not sure if it's the food or not cause people in NYC (Manhattan borough) are in fabulous shape. Plus NYC is a very pedestrian friendly city so you have to walk every where. In NJ you require a car unless you live in JC or Hoboken. Plus when it's cold people don't go out much. So that's why people might be over weight due to that?

      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.
