Hi Ashley ???? I'm hoping either Dr Voellinger or Dr Bauman. My insurance won't answer my questions till they issue my ID number that starts January 1st, so I'm not sure who they will tell me I can or cannot use ???? how bout you?

I am using Dr. Gersin at Carolinas Weight Management. I've had such an awesome positive experience with them!

Are they through Carolina's medical center? I have seminar there January 12th. I did an online seminar with southeast Bariatric and have appointment with dr Voellinger not until feb 6th. I thought I'd go to the other place I first mentioned to just in case I can get process started sooner. I'm nervous about going for some reason. I think just walking in to seminar is me admitting I need the help and calling myself overweight..

      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.
