I used him...sleeved 09/21/2016. I really like Dr. Baker because he is tough, he tells you the truth. If you get your feelings hurt easily or you are not ready to fully commit, he may not be the guy for you. I wanted someone who would hold me accountable and not coddle me. He did a great job with the surgery, I went home the next day. The team is great as well. I wish you lots of luck!!!! Oh, I didn't pay anything for my surgery because my son had already met my total out of pocket for the year. (Blue Cross Blue Shield), surgery cost 34,000...my insurance had a $7000 out of pocket maximum so that's the most that I would have paid. Good 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.
