The same thing happened to me when I first came home. Try smart water or mixing Vitamin water with regular water.

I got a voicemail from my insurance(Aetna) which said she wanted to discuss some incentive program and then it was also a courtesy call for my upcoming procedure and to give her a call back. Has this happened to anyone? Does this mean I got approved? I'm so confused and sooo nervous!!

Thank you! I got approved and actually just had my surgery on May 28th! Down 30 pounds from pre-op diet to now

I just did my pre-op today too! May 28th here we come!!

Oh wow! If only that we're my situation lol. Awesome job on your success btw!

Seriously thank you all so much. This made me feel alot better.

The 28th!

I was in the same situation. I HATE cooking too so that doesn't help. Hopefully that's something I eventually start to enjoy! I'm curious to see what my dr says about my pre sleeved stomach when he's in there.

I'm on a 2 week all liquid diet. I have 2 jobs and just recently quit the 3rd so I think all the working I've been doing has just made me really weak. I've just felt shaky a lot of the time. I haven't eaten fast food at all or had any soda or calorie filled drinks but I definitely haven't followed the diet to a T. I have little bites of stuff here and there. A piece of a banana, spoonful of Peanut Butter, a slice of deli meat. The craziest was the fried rice. It was homemade so it wasn't too bad for me but still, that's no excuse. What's your diet like and when's your surgery date?

I guess I'm really not giving myself that much credit. I haven't had any soda or sweet tea this whole time. That's a plus I guess, lol.

My surgery date is May 28th, will I be able to drive by the 31st?

I ironically started my pre-op diet today in the hopes that everything would go smoothly with the approval and my surgery date would be May 28th, and guess what?! I got my approval TODAY! I'm so excited, nervous, anxious, stressed, but mainly excited! I'm so ready for this new change. On a side note: Is it weird that right when I found out about the approval my first thought was to Celebrate by going out to dinner with the bf...? Lol old habits die hard I guess! but I DID NOT go out to dinner!

Awesome job! You give me hope

When was your surgery? And congrats!
