I had the sleeve done by Dr. Garcia on 12/28 and am down 35 pounds. So on March 3rd, I am going there again with my friend for her to be done. We will be there at the same time.

Hi my sister and I are having gastric bypass March 4th would love to know anyone else going to Dr Fernando Garcia in ????

Hi, I am having bypass done with Dr. Fernando Garcia soon hopefully. I was gonna do the sleeve, but now am doing bypass due to my diabetes and GERD. I have been able to find a lot of what people say about having the sleeve done with him, but haven't spoken to anyone who has had bypass done by him. Would u mind sharing your experience?

Thank you in advance!

      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.
