Greetings,

Just had my sleeve done Dec. 29 in Mexico because my ins. would not cover surgery but it was the best move I made. I went to Dr. Zavalza who made me feel like family. I am in Memphis starting this new year with the idea that it will be one of the best yet with my wife and grandchildren.

Mal0712,

how are doing if you want more information on Mexico go to my post "Mexico was my blessing for those looking for answers as to why and where". I did tons of research and found the best care because it was to expensive for me here in the states. I have been very blessed that I have had no set backs to this point. Let us know when your having surgery I like to pray for all those going in that they will be as blessed as I was and come out the other side refreshed and ready for a new life.

      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.
