    VSG Surgery 4/14!! Twins?

    How’s everyone doing? I’m doing better than expected, but the food aversions are coming in full force! I can’t even LOOK at pudding without wanting to gag.

    Best of luck! You’ve got this! Let us know how you do!
  3. My insurance just decided yesterday that they want to do an additional medical review and that they will let me know THE DAY BEFORE my surgery (4/14) if I am approved. I’m already on day 5 of the liquid diet and this seems unethical to do to someone.
  4. Went through the entire program, 6 months. Did all the tests, appts, etc. Lost 60 lbs. Got a surgery date of 4/14 (a week from Friday). Started the pre-op diet on Sunday. Just got a call from my surgeon saying my insurance now wants to do an additional medical review and probably wont let me know until the day before surgery if I am approved. I find this completely unacceptable, and I'm so equally full of rage and sorrow right now I don't know what to do with myself. (Not to mention all the potentially lost wages for the time off I already booked)

      I hope you are in surgery and they didn't cancel! I had to stop losing weight because I was paranoid they'd refuse mine.

  5. Day 4 of the pre op diet and hoooo boy the headache and insomnia is for realsies!
  6. Hooray! Enjoy! (as much as one can enjoy electrolyte water) 😂
  7. you can get it on Amazon
  8. I've found I really like Nectar brand electrolytes. No sugar, and has calcium and magnesium, which gatorade is missing. The watermelon is pretty good. And small packets for travel and low volume fluids
