Anyone going to Carolina Weight Loss Clinic?



Recommended Posts

Hi! I've been going to the Carolina Weight Loss Clinic and I plan on being banded by Dr. Bauman. Has anyone else been banded by Dr. Bauman? I'm waiting to find out if I'm approved for the surgery:scared2:.

I know several people that are posted by Dr. B. We actaully meet monthly. If you want to pm me I will be happy to share some info w/ you. He personally isn't my doctor but I did go to his seminar when I was looking to be banded. I have heard good things about him.

Good Luck!

He's great! He is nice and seems to be very concerned with his patients health. The nurses are pretty good 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.
