Hi I'm a June sleever



Recommended Posts

Curious why you chose that surgeon and whom else you considered? I am also looking in the Dallas are. Congrats on your date!

Well I have been wanting this for 8 years and finally just gave it to God. A week later one of my clients came in and had lost 80 pounds since I had seen her 5 months before. She recommended the doctor. Then I found out that my business partner of 18 years had her lap band done by the same doctor 7-8 years ago. She loves him. Also, he has had WLS himself! I really prayed about this and I even posted a prayer on a prayer wall app for God to take this weight struggle away, two days later was when my client walked in and it has been such an easy process since then. It really just seemed to me that HE was steering me through this.

I used Dr. Nicolson you would not be disappointed. Losing and not much pain and believe me I don't handle pain well.

      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.
