I was banded by Dr. Jay on April 29th and my sister was banded by him 2 weeks later. We both just think he is wonderful! He's so kind and caring. I have lost 70 pounds since being banded and I couldn't be more pleased. Dr. Jay has wonderful aftercare, too. He has done a lot of people from McKinney and surrounding towns and we all complained about having to drive to Dallas for support group meetings so he said he would be glad to come here. We had our first meeting the last Thursday of July at El Chico's and sure enough, he was there. He said he'd love to make it a monthly event and we were all for it. That to me shows how kind he is to drive to McKinney after a long day to eat and visit with some of his bandsters. That to me said a whole lot about him! You'll be just as pleased as I am, I'm sure. Good luck with your upcoming surgery! Becky

      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.
