Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Dr Kirshenbaum



Recommended Posts

I am from Calgary, Canada and am wondering if anyone has had the band done by Dr K in denver??? I spoke to Nicole at his office and she said that they have done 1 other person from Canada, so i wonder if you had yours done by him if you could tell me how it was etc.......

I have spoken to the weight management clinic here in Calgary and there is a Dr who will do the fills for me ,so I am thinking that Dr. K is really good price and an alternative to Mexico . My other option is the clinic is missisauga ontario and it is 1600.00 compared to dr K and 9950.00

Not sure what to do ... any advice / info would be appeiciated

thanks

      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.
