I have BCBSIL PPO. You are fine as long as they are a PPO hospital and doctor. Most hospital and doctors are

I agree! You summed up everything!! Thank You MsMartin!!!

Seattle slew Welcome! I'm 41 so I understand how you feel. Better late than never. I had a child this time last year and my weight never left. Packed on more actually. Even if your parents may not have your back at least your hubby and kids do. My hubby is my biggest cheerleader. He even did the pre op with so I wouldn't be by myself. He caved yesterday. Lol. I don't blame him. My mom is very supportive and so is my aunt. But other than a few friends that's all that knows and I am fine with that. We are here to support each other.

Welcome! I don't know what area you are in. My Dr is Dr Cadillac at little company of Mary in Evergreen Park. He came highly recommended and the bariatric care is a center of excellence. Him Tony the consult were are awesome. So far my experience has been great. Will let you know any info you like after surgery on Monday.

I'm ready. Pre op sucks

I know how you feel. I got another protein shake after the call. Lol

Got my call. I have to be at the hospital at 7 am..

I will work on that stuff when I get to soft foods. My post op is much more strict. I'm clear liquids for 2 weeks. But I will look into that papaya enzyme. Where do you get that from?

That's not too bad. It's protein at least! Lol

Just got my call too I have to be there at 7 am. It's Time!!!

What u been buying? Lol

Good Luck Sabrine..I wish you nothing but the best on your journey.

I actually have not gotten scared yet. It will probably hit Sunday night. I guess I have been trying to stay on track with this pre op and getting my boys ready for easter.

You are fine. We all are going thru this journey together. The pre op meeting I went to I was the only sleever in the group of 10

gixxergirl dont feel bad just get back on it. This pre op is not easy. My sons bday was yesterday and it was so hard not to have cake. I did like some icing on my hands. I did hear about that dumping so I get how you feel. We are almost there!!!

Pre op has been rough but ive been hanging in there. I guess I do need to pack. I have to make plans for lil one on Monday depending on what time I have to be there.

4 more days for me as well. I'm ready!!

I am experiencing all of what you all are saying. I feel so bad to be so upset when my 1yr old cries. Hubby stays clear. Lol. But he is a sweetie. He is doing liquids with me so I wouldn't be alone. Today's is my 1yr birthday. I'm taking cupcakes to his daycare. That will be torture. I'm going armed with water and a shake. I'm just thinking 4 more days!!!

Dr Cahill penciled me a date in garter the insurance was submitted. Talk to Tony about it.

Hey Chi town! What's going on? How is everyone doing? I'm half thru my pre op and surgery is scheduled for Monday. Pre ops been rough but I'm following it... for the most part. Lol. Evening hours are the hardest. What's everyone's current stats? Where are you on this journey?
