I have lost 32 pounds so far still have a ways to go. I feel great though and looking forward to the New Smaller me. I am looking for people to connect with.

No Not Really. I am not on liquid anymore. I eat pretty healthy but I have eaten nachos at the movies or the little to go cups from Kfc. Just a little reward for myself. Do you feel?

Sounds like you are doing good.

Ok . Try to rest as much as possible. Did they give you any pain medication

Hello I am back at work at now eating some foods. I did eat a little fast yesterday and made myself sick. I am doing pretty well. I have more energy. I hope you feel better. Taking another week is a good idea. Just take your time. Everybody is different

That is the best way to break bad eating habits. It's amazing how many people here are going through the same surgeon. That is good. This side has been a really big support system for me. -

Hi Barb that sounds great. I am actually 8 days into my diet but it's not all liquid. I can have one small meal with a lean meat and one green vegetable and an apple. Then I can have sugar free Jello and popsicle. I have lost 7 pounds already so I am doing better than I thought. I still get nervous as the day draws near though. Which surgery are you having? -

Cigna- Gained weight waiting for approval
mpeters2011 replied to RedStorm's topic in Insurance & Financing
I have cigna too, and my paperwork was just submitted last week. I assume my patient advocate is expecting a fast approval because she already put me on my pre opt diet. I did lose 3 pound by my third weigh in and at my last weigh in I did not gain or lose weight. -
I start my pre opt Diet this weekend, which consist of 2 Protein shakes a day, a small healthy meal, fruit and 1 snack. I should have my surgery date in the next 2 to 3 weeks DX Pre-Op Diet Hou Main 20140603 (1).pdf
