I used ALM. Fantastic experience! So good, that my husband went and did it too. (Both of us got sleeves.)

The ENTIRE staff was so attentive and welcoming. From the driver at the airport to the nurses while checking in and the around the clock medical staff. They are compassionate and very professional. The language barrier isn't a problem if you can't speak Spanish because they have translators on staff. My Doctor was great. I hardly had any pain or bruising. I can't express my gratitude for them enough. The facility is clean and accommodating. They are still doing renovations but nothing that the patients are hindered by. I hope this helps you. I know I needed all the reassurance I could possibly get. 🙂

      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.
