Recommendations for revision surgery in North Jersey and surrounding area



Recommended Posts

Just like the title states, I am in the process of meeting with surgeons and trying to make a decision on revision surgery. Looking to hear about surgeons used and your experience.

I had gastric sleeve surgery done by Dr. Sadek and the team at Advanced Surgical and Bariatrics in Somerset NJ. The surgery was performed at RWJ Hospital in New Brunswick. I had a great experience with them. They have a few offices in Central NJ, in case that helps.

Sadek has a great reputation. My coworker had his done in November and is doing great. He said 5 other people went after they saw his results and they are happy, too.

RWJBH in NB is a great facility, also.

      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.
