I use the Lourdes network for almost all of my doctors...I really like them. Have only been to this Camden hospital once for pre-surgery testing, but it seemed really nice. Good luck with Nursing school!

I'm going to be at Lourdes in Camden.

Where are you guys that are in new jersey having your surgery?


Good luck! I like Lourdes. I'm applying to nursing school there!

I started the pre-Op diet on Monday and today I've lost 7 lbs. I know is sounds like a plug but the Unjury Protein Shakes taste really good. I have some chocolate Orgain too but it seems a bit chalky and tastes a bit peptobismolly.

I started my preop on 4/4 weighing in 210 lbs. VSG 4/18 and today 4/23 I am 193.7. Thats a lost of 17.2 pounds in 19 days. I can't believe my eyes. I weight myself this morning without my glasses and I was so certain it said 199 and I said to myself: there it is. I'm gaining weigh. When I got off and looked closer and saw 193.7 I was shocked. I mean happy but it just feels unreal. I've been struggling with my weight my whole life and now it's literally just melting off me. The doctor and the staff always said to me: you are going to do great. This is just what you need. And I always smiled back but with some disbelieve. Today I can say it's been the best decision I've ever made! And I'm not even a week post op!

Hi all, I'm new to this forum but having read the posts I can see that you're all wonderful and a great support network for one another. I'm from the UK, and unfortunately haven't been able to find a forum like this in the UK, so hope you don't mind me joining in?! I'm due for a sleeve on 1st May, so I'm currently doing my 2 weeks pre-op diet... Best of luck to everyone with their upcoming surgeries. Xx

      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.
