LaGrange Sleevers



Recommended Posts

Anyone on here have the sleeve or the sleeve with duodenal switch with Dr. Turton? In my pre approval stage and getting a little nervous. My PCP recommended I talk to him about getting the duodenal switch done as well but Idk if he does that. I have an appt with his NP next Thursday but wanted to see if there are any others that use him. How was your surgery and follow ups with him?

That's awesome! I have 1 last requirement to meet and I hope it'll be met next week. Then he said I'd be on the schedule 4 to 6 weeks after that. I may have to put it off until May, but it's still getting close!

Best of luck!

      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.
