I'm in St. Louis, MO and my surgeon is Dr. Herluf Lund he works out of St. Louis Cosmetic Surgery in Chesterfield, MO. I'm not sure about the rules on posting links but if you Google 'Dr Lund St. Louis' he'll come right up. He is absolutely wonderful, bedside manner so amazing and very very funny just when you need him to be!

...so it's been 6 weeks and I'm really happy with my results. I'll post several comparative before/after pictures below. I have had a complication where I have an incision dehiscence (opened wound) that started out just as an irritation but Dr took out some deep sutures that were causing the problem so it's healing now.

      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.
