I went to true results for my initial consultation but found a surgeon I better fit with closer to seabrook where I live. I really liked them though. They were very nice on my initial consultation. My sleeve is June 11th and I'm a little terrified and A LOT excited! Who is your surgeon? Dr. Hollis? I heard good things about him!

I was sleeved April 30,2014 in the Woodlands. I am down 50 lbs total. I remember being less than a wk out and was concerned about hunger. Looking back I believe it was more acid than actual hunger. I am on Prevacid and will continue on it for at least 6 months; as I had Hietal Hernia repair with surgery and acid reflux for years pre surgery. I have very little hunger now. By the time I get my tiny meals, Protein and Water in, I'm relieved to stop eating and drinking at the day's end.

I went to True Results. Dr Hollis did my sleeve. He was good. I am 2 months out today and have had very little problems, a few stalls, but its because I don't get enough food.

My only complaint. Not really a complaint because I could ask, all I got was a folder with 4 pages in it telling me what to eat for 4 weeks after surgery. Because I was self pay they do not care. I have been to Dr Hollis office twice and talked to his nurse all she will tell me is NO carbs. It is a little frustrating.

I am happy I did it.

I am in Lake Jackson, south of Houston.

      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.
