I have made 4 weeks today with Bordland. I really like him. I have an apt today actually.

I got an entire folder of info,and you can always call and ask questions.

As far as hotel stay, I stayed at la Quinta and really liked it.

The holiday Inn would be my other choice.

Doing good ... down 33 pounds. I think I'm only going to do about 15 more. Feeling great and really no problem. A little nausea but usually just when I go too long without eating.

I'm so excited for you and cant wait to hear how everything is going. I'm here for you!!

Each time it's been 7-10 days and then I'll drop 1-2 pounds. This is slow moving but that's kind of what I expected and hoping that will help it stay off. Weighed in this morning at 163.7 ... 35 pounds total since my highest weight.

Your day is almost here! Can't wait to hear all about it. If you have any questions while you're there, don't hesitate to ask! So excited for you!

Hi, I am glad to find a current post about Dr. Borland. I had an appointment with him today, and he was very nice. I scheduled my surgery for December. I was wondering how did you all take care of your blood work and x-ray. Did your family doctor do it and file on insurance? I am really unsure of how my family doctor will respond to me wanting to have 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.
