What was your "Last Meal" before starting the pre-surgery diet???
Turch replied to Jjohnson1971's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am and always have been very picky. None of the shakes Ive tried taste good to me. I'm not a fan of the aftertaste most diet foods have. -

Turch replied to Jjohnson1971's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i went to Olive Garden, ordered Ravioli Carbonara and a coke. Of course salad and I had breadsticks. Day two and I'm hungry and nauseous. I have these gross protein meals to eat but I'd rather diet with grilled chicken and some veggies. -

2 weeks and 6 days. I've started my preop diet by going to see a movie and smelling popcorn instead of eating it. That was hard!

I thought my insurance was covering the sleeve, but since i was originally going to get the balloon, they still thought I was self pa after giving them my info they did not clarify with me! Self pay, the balloon would be $6900, BUT THE SLEEEVE IS OVER $13OOO SO NOW I'M WAITING ON APPROVAL. wHwhile MY SURGERY IS SCEDULED FOR the 27th, but it may need to be moved out further. 😵

Hello! I have one final appointment on March 16 before the auth request can be sent to my insurance. Looks like the hospital is scheduling out to the end of April. I hope to have a surgery date within the next month or so.

I just finished another virtual dietary appointment. I have to do one more in office appointment before they can to send the prior Auth to my insurance. I will not be having surgery on the 27th. That much is true, so I can stop the protein crap I've been eating and do a regular diet with real food. I just had an egg for lunch and I almost cried

I just heard back from the office. I have to do two more supervised diets, meet a nutirtionist again before they can submit a prw auth. my surgery will be pushed back to March, maybe later.🤬

Have you asked your doc about meds to help your anxiety? With the pre op diet my doctor put me on, it makes me wonder if a liquid diet would have been better. He has his patients eat items from https://protifoods.com/. most make me nauseous. I have two more weeks of it to go. My first weigh in is tomorrow.

February 2023 surgery dates!
Turch replied to Erin18's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Im scheduled for the 27th and struggling on my 3week preop diet. My surgeon has us eat food from a company called Proti and the soups make me sick to my stomach. I just want a salty crunch, but I can't eat those without feeling sick. This is a very low cal diet, but I had been hoping for this to be a diet of real food at least. Lots of veggies, etc. -

Mine is three weeks of shakes, snacks, and entrees that taste awful. Most of it makes me sick to my stomach.
