@FayBeeHello. Dr. Michael Wood from DMC Harper BMI was my surgeon. However, I am currently considering trying Dr. Hendrick for a revision if needed/possible. How is he?

I had my VGS done this past week with Dr. Pleatman. He’s so knowledgeable and did a wonderful job. He gives you his personal number and email so you have direct contact with him if you have any questions or problems. His self pay rate is also very reasonable. I especially appreciated how he showed me what results I should be expecting after this operation and in how long, if I stick to protocol. I loveeee Cari, she works in the office and she seriously made the entire process so comforting and answered all of my questions. I completely recommend Dr. Pleatman for weight loss surgery!

      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.
