Hi! I'm 5 days away from surgery and uber excited yet very nervous ! Just curious if I have any July sleevers around my area? I'm open to meeting everyone, just wondering who may be near me. Even if you have already had your surgery.. I want to hear from you!

Did you use Erlanger or Memorial? I went to a seminar for Dr. Sanborn last October and am still waiting. It's been so slow!

I took classes at Memorial & I used Dr. Ponce. He's amazing! He did my surgery at Hamilton Medical Center in Georgia. I was a cash pay patient and he usually does all his cash pay patients there.

I have a friend who used Dr. Ponce years ago to have a lap band. She liked him very much. Good luck to you!

Hey, so I don't have a surgery date yet, but I'm hoping for august. I'm using a Dr in the boro. I've completed all my requirements I just have to see the surgeon and the nutritionist and meet the goal amount he wants me to lose before 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.
