Maryland sleevers?!



Recommended Posts

I'm also in Southern Maryland. Do any of the other SOMD folks know of any face-to-face support groups that are local? My surgery was at GW, so their support group sessions are not very convenient.

I'm in St Mary's county, I had my surgery in Annapolis @ AAMC. I would also like to find a support group closer to home.

I'm in Camp Springs MD and travel all the way to Frederick MD with Dr. MCKENNA. I had a friend go with the practice and used my flex spending to pay the fee. My insurance requires 90 day nutrition and I started in February 2016. Hoping to schedule for late June 2016

I live in Frederick and I went with Dr. Osbourne because there was no program fee.

      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.
