Anyone use Tx Bariatrics in Rockwall?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I am just starting my journey and have my first consultation on April 11th with Dr Stephens at Tx Bariatrics. I am really excited and just wondered if anyone else has used that clinic. Also I have BCBS ppo through my husband's job (KCS railroad) and I have worked with my primary for 1 yr already trying to loose weight. Anyone know what the weight time usually is between consultation & surgery?

I am actually in Wylie and I am using Kim Bariatrics in Frisco. However I have heard great things about TX Bariatrics.. But with my insurance I am limited. I am currently 1 month in to my 6 month physician supervised diet.

I haven't used this forum in forever. But wanted to check in. I ended up having my VSG surgery on 11/21/16 I was 298.6 at my first consult 4/11/16, 265.8 the morning of surgery and as of today 3 days from being 9 months post op I'm at 175!! I'm in a size 12 pant from a 24W and in either a women's L shirt or juniors XL down from a 3X! I am off all my BP meds, have tons more energy and just overall really happy I had my surgery. My new tool has been amazing.

I'm seeing Dr. Colleen Kennedy in Dallas. A friend referred me to her and can't say enough wonderful things about her. I'm glad that she accepts my insurance.

      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.
