Hi everyone

I know i have not been posting as much as of late as usual. Been super busy here as well as just a tad depressed on feeling that i was not making any progress towards getting my surgery. The delays I had really upset me mentally.

Well today I finally got my last Carewise phone call. And was told that she would submit my file today or tomorrow for review and that normally in less then a week she has an answer and that it has never taken longer then 2 weeks. Then she would call my insurance and dr and tell them i am approved!!! She said that she felt that i had everything turned in and didnt see any reason why i couldnt get an Late April surgery date. I am sooo excited. I cant wait to start bugging the insurance compnay ... lol. Yayyyyy!!!

I'm excited for you, Deb, and hope you get a positive answer soon! Though I understand why you were feeling discouraged, I've missed you and am glad you're back!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
