Hello! I have completed all of the requirements from my surgeon and I am just waiting for the call to schedule my sleeve surgery (hoping for late march/early April). I am having it done at the Barix Clinic in Langhorne, PA. Just looking for anyone going through this at the same time to be a buddy! Message me!!! Also- anyone have theirs done at the Barix Clinic? Would love some feedback!

The Barix clinic schedules their pre admission about 2 weeks before surgery. They told me it's a 3-4 hour appointment so be prepared for that

I am so frustrated with Barix clinic in Langhorne right now. I feel like they don't care about me as a patient at all! They faxed my insurance information to a wrong number at my insurance company, never called to follow up about a peer to peer review, now they've missed the window for the review, and have to appeal... Oh AND they have not called me AT ALL to check in. If this is the kind of care I receive BEFORE I am even a full patient.... I think I am going to go somewhere else. It sucks that I have to start all over again, but this is ridiculous!

Oh nooo I am sorry to hear you are having a bad experience, I have been getting personal calls from my surgeon (dr marymor) who gave me his cell if I have questions!

      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.
