Veronica told us Wednesday that a plastic surgeon would be at the support group meeting tomorrow. It starts at 10:30. I won't be able to make this one since I have so much to do before Thursday. Hopefully, I'll make it next month!

Amanda, Amy, & Jason - It was great seeing you at support group today! This is the first meeting I've been to after getting insurance approval and my surgery date. It made it feel different....like it's really going to happen.

I am getting more and more excited! Hopefully these next few weeks will fly by.

It was nice meeting all of you as well! I am so jealous that you already have your date, but hopefully mine won't be too far behind.

Hearing all the testimonials today was really encouraging. Could've gone without seeing the sagging skin pics though! LOL!:scared2:

I hope everything goes well with your surgery. Please let us know how the presurgery Protein goes, and any helpful hints you come up with along the way!

Hey guys,

I was interested in finding out who the plastics guy was at your meeting? Did you like him? I've gone to see a few in Bham recently and I would love to get some feedback on what you thought about the one who came to talk to you.

THANKS!

he was dr. ike. and i did like him alot. he was a no bullshit kind of guy. and like he said anyone can do plastic surgery, but only a few people does reconstruction surgery. he also was saying no matter who you go to st least fine someone that has done people with weight loss surgery before. he is the one that done veroinca plastic surgery. thats who i will go and see when i get ready for it.

If you're talking about Dr. Eich, he is one of the guys I went to see. He was very nice and did appear knowledgeable. My only drawback with him was that he doesn't take credit cards and my flex care benefits are with a credit card. I don't have the money to foot it upfront and then be reimbursed, unfortunately! :redface:

Thanks for letting me know!

      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?

      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.
