@@melbell2222 when is it? what surgery?

@@James Marusek Thank you. I have eliminated soda so far. Tea... on the other hand is more difficult. At this point, I am trying to switch to decaffeinated and herbal. Walking/swimming happens most every day either 30 min in the pool or walking at least 5 days a week. WHAT ELSE?

@@MissB1982 you are blessed! I am so impressed with everyone who has surgery dates way before the procedure. I have the hurry up and wait plan based on insurance. It is time to GIDDYUP!!

I'm real! Really here a year later!

You can do this and deserve the end product. One moment at a time things will get better. Feel the blessing as it begins to transform you.

I am preparing for an RNY next month - hoping for early July (would feel blessed with late June). My reclassification appointment is set for June 16th so it is time to prepare for the liquid diet. Hopefully, the insurance company will simply approve the procedure and things will move along smoothly. Thank you for the opportunity to post here and join a team. It is so much easier with a crew for support who are going through the same process.

Excited for you! Keep us advised of progress. It is great to have someone so close so we can go through this together.

I have about 5 days from my reclassification where I believe he will start me on my preop diet. Not sure. Waiting for details on Thursday the 16th of June. Feeling nervous and excited at the same time.

I am looking at a July surgery date and will learn more at my reclassification appointment on June 16. I hope for the last day of June or the first week of July after the 2 weeks protein fast.
