Hi all. I have a January date and staring my preop diet today. I’m not sure if the insurance approved yet, or if they will. How long did your insurance take?anybody have to postpone because of insurance?

I have two shakes a day, one cup of fruit, sugar free jello or ices, and one meal with lean protein, low starch veggies. I can have more low starch veggies another time.

There are guidelines, and i met them. Consecutive surgeon apts and nutrition apts, tests, and medical need. I am having a band removed, a hernia fixed, and the sleeve procedure. I checked the insurance site but did not find information. I emailed the dr office, but with the holidays, may not there until the new year. I am a nervous/anxious person, so I am worried this plan and date are going all too well and some wrench is going to be thrown into the mix. It would be just my luck that I am on this preop diet and things may get delayed.

@melissa i am on a low fat high protein (definition-eat nothing) for two weeks. I am struggling and its only day 4.

Jan 9! Starting pre-Sx diet today.
