Dr. Felts and AIGB/TrueResults Dallas



Recommended Posts

I just wanted to let everyone know that I was banded this morning by Dr. Felts and he is the BEST doctor I've had to date. I was a little worried since you only get to meet the Dr. the day before surgery but I felt very comfortable with him and his staff. Dr. Felts is a very personable guy and he has a since of humor!! They truly have a first class operation there. Also the staff at AIGB/TrueResults did a wonderful job too. They will definately get my thumbs up for referrals. Thanks AIGB and Dr. Felts!!

I was banded by Dr. Felts a little over a month ago (he does surgery once a month in Houston).

I like him. He is more laid back than many I have heard about. I told him that I was hearing of doctors saying no coffee or tea,,, he said that if I wanted it, I could have as much as I want.

On the night before surgery, after two weeks of pre-op diet, he told me to go home and have a good meal.

And he does a very good job with the surgery too.

Yes, he did the same with the group I was with. And boy , did I make the best of it. I stopped at KFC on the way home and got a 2 piece meal with extra crispy. I'm not an extra crispy guy, but boy did it taste good. Then about 2hrs later the family went to Abuelo's Mexican Restaurant in Plano and had dinner. I'm satisfied that the wait and sugery are now behind me and I can get on to a much better and healthier life.

      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.
