I'm scheduled with Dr Lopez on 19 May. If you do a search on this board, you will find several others who have also had Dr Lopez and were pleased with the procedure and care received.

dr.  Jesus Lopez just did mine yesterday. He did a great job and had the best price. I am at the recovery house now. I feel great just a little sore like when you do ab workouts.

I'm considering him as well, but I'm very nervous. I know someone, personally, who had surgery done by Miguel Zapata. He's more expensive. Anyway, I'm following this because I want to see how it goes with others. Thanks for posting. Best of luck to you and everyone else have surgery.

hello everyone, I'm schedule on May 15 can't wait!!! But to be honest was a little reluctant to go to him at first, due to lack of reviews but David Lopez was very helpful. He contacted me so that I could talk to Dr Lopez patients that were at the recovery house and he always send me pictures. I will be posting my review after my surgery. Stay tuned!!!

      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.
