Recommended Posts

I was just scheduled today for 10/5....2 weeks! I was told once I was approved by insurance it would be 3-4 weeks so I was mentally planning for later in October. Little freaked out now!

Hi All - I'm scheduled for a band to sleeve revision on October 19th with Dr. Scarborough in Houston.

I've created a Facebook page for October Sleevers. Please send me your email address if you'd like to join. The settings are secret, but I named it October 2015 Sleevers.

Best of luck to everyone!!!

Forgive my Facebook ignorance, but is the group private? Will it show up in my profile as a group I am in?

November 2, gastric sleeve. with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. Met with Dr. Ortiz, Dr. Martinez, and nutritionist when visiting San Diego last week. Also toured clinic and spoke with several people waiting for surgery the next day. My husband and I were satisfied that this is a good choice. Traveling from Phoenix, AZ. Hubby is going but would be happy to meet some people online that I could connect with during surgery week!

Hi RDub - It's coded as secret, so it's not supposed to show anywhere. I was worried about that too. You may want to read up on the Secret groups though. The name is October 2015 Sleevers if you want to try to search it

Hi everyone. I am a member of Sleevers over 50 on fb. It is a closed group as well and there haven't been any issues. Just check your privacy settings to be sure. I am nervously looking forward to my October 13th date here in Chicago.

      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.
