Anyone who would like to follow I started today and my blog is myRNYstory.wordpress.com An if you have blog let me know and I'll follow you!

Looks like my new day will be June 20 if all goes well when she starts scheduling!! Also do any of y'all have a blog or would you follow blogs? I've had a few people suggest it to me and I think it's a great idea just wondering if anyone would follow

Oh any now I have to switch surgeons and probably surgery dates but that's ok because I still got approved!!

I just got APPROVAL however they do not approve sleeve gastric bypass.. Even though my call to them last month said they did but they did approve rny and I am just as happy about that!! Thanks to everyone who prayed!!

Prayers are needed right now!!! I just called insurance and one if the people didn't submit my whole packet to the review board so the now have the whole packet thanks to the lady I called. She has also emailed to ask for a rush since my tentative date is June 12. I'm hoping I have an approval this week so I can keep my date. Prayers are needed please!!!!!!!

Ahhhh I just wish i could get insurance approval. On another note I'm still on this liver shrinking diet and I'm down 2 lbs

Just weighed myself an I'm down 2 pounds in one week. I know that's not much but I did splurge and had two cookies when I started my period because my sugared dropped so low I was on the verge of passing out. I know Im probably holding extra weight also from being that time of the month so I'm excited to see what I'm down by time surgery is here. Wish I would get my insurance approval already..

Thanks. I have a little more energy today and today is actually a lot better food wise. Instead of a protein shake at lunch I had a protein bar and surprisingly that was more fulfilling and taste so much better. Also I can't get over how emotional I have been. The slightest thing will bring tears to the eyes.

I'm doing okay. I'm still waiting on insurance approval and today is my second day if my liver shrinking diet. I was so gingery yesterday but after my boyfriend reminded me I'm aloud a protein bar and a small salad at lunch I'm hoping today is better. I still have no energy though and since I've come off soda about three weeks ago I've done nothing but sleep most the day and yesterday I slept even longer. I'm hoping this ends soon.

So day two I'm doing better but I still have NO energy and I've been sleeping 3/4 of the day. Will this go away?

My tentative surgery date is June 12 and they told me to start liver shrink today however I'm still waiting for insurance approval. My waist size is 59 inches and I have to be under 60inches so I think there starting me know so that I don't gain any weight at all. Also my diet isn't just liquid I get one fruit snack and one veggie snack and dinner is 3oz of lean meat and 1 cup veggies. But I'm liquid diet from 7am- 3pm

Thanks! I tired a unjury sample for lunch an I seem to tolerate it better. I at least didn't have to strong gagging feeling. I also read on there website that blend it with orange juice flavor crystal light and its like a smoothie. I'm think I wil buy it instead. I just hope it gets here soon I don't want to have to choke down the other for to many more days.

I drank my first shake at 7am... OMG is nasty. I had a yogurt at 10 And since my stomach feels like its going to explode, and. Have to drink my other shake in a few minutes and I don't know that I have room I feel sooo full. Also day one I've been on the toilet almost all day. Is anyone else's like this?

I start my pre op liver shrinking diet tomorrow. For mine I have two protein shakes, a yogurt for am snack, fruit for pm snack and 3oz of lean meat with 1 cup veggies. I'm scared I'll still be hungry but compared to some of y'all's diets I feel like I'll actually be eating enough. I have to be on the liver shrink from tomorrow until my anticipated surgery date of June 12. I'm just waiting on approval from my insurance company.!!! I hope it doesn't take the full 7-10 days.

So excited for you. Think positive and all will be fine

Thanks!!

Thank you!!

My clinic wanted to get things done fast since I change insurance in Aug. I was required to write a 10 page research paper, email 10 previous patients, see psychologist, surgeon, nutritionist, primary, labs, a family support letter and a 16 paragraph consent form. After my first seminar I cut out sodas, an they made my appointments after all my appointments I turned everything in yesterday and today se sent it off to insurance. All those requirements were for my clinic and not my insurance for insurance I had to have a BMI over 40, pay my portion, and to see all the specialist.

Also I start my liver shrinking diet Thursday when i can buy my protein shakes!!!

I submitted to insurance today and if all goes well then my surgery will be June 12. This process has been so fast I just started the whole thing May 5!!!! I'm really hoping my insurance approves and I don't have to change anything so I can keep my June 12 surgery day!!!

Hey ladies I had all last appointments on Monday and my packet was filled with insurance today. If there are no problems with insurance then my surgery date is June 12. Fingers crossed and praying that insurance accepts everything!

I go to regional bariatric center an they require us to do a 9 page research paper, and. 16 paragraph consent form, talk to 10 previous patients and have a support person and letter. They have also educated me. I really like that he makes you fully understand everything involved so your not as nervous and your trash for anything that may be thrown at you.
