Hello everyone! I'm new...pre-op from Long Island

That does make sense...eating less in the evening. So it seems like lunch was the last meal that you replaced. That is a good idea. Maybe I will try to start thst after Thanksgiving...my surgery is not scheduled until Dec 23.

Sayville, NY here. I'm using Dr. Buchin with Huntington Hospital. I'm 2 months into my 6 month supervised diet. Will have surgery (if I get approval) on 3/13/17. I was already given a date because of school! I've heard great things about Dr. Atwa! His associate Dr. Visswinkel did my gallbladder and that whole office was great!

[ginabee38 91]

I'm in Bay Shore. ..that's pretty close. Glad to hear you've heard good things about Dr. Atwa. That's comforting.

@@ginabee38 I'm feeling alright. Today I'm not allowed to have any Protein shakes..only Clear Liquids. I feel like I have a short fuse today. The clear liquids aren't filling but I'm trying to keep my mind occupied. I have to be at the hospital at 5am!

[ginabee38 91]

I'd probably have a short fuse too...the day before surgery and you can't eat to ease anxiety. I don't know if you do that also, but I think I would have a problem with that. Good luck to you...when you're feeling up to it post-op, I'd like to hear how you're doing.

That's where I had mine in August. They are wonderful. The care I received was absolutely top notch.
