What about U have U heard anything?

Hi Pepper!

I just had my medical clearance appointment Friday and all is good to go! They said it will take a couple weeks for everything to be submitted. Aghh! I can't wait. But my patient coordinator said the day they submit she wants me to start the pre op diet because it should be quick!

Let's keep in touch, you're a few weeks ahead of me, please keep me posted so i will know what to expect when my turn comes. Where R U located I'm in Houston, but having my surgery 45 min away in Conroe TX. I started with true results but they are out of network so they referred me to this Doc. Hope all goes well with the per op diet what does it consist of. Don't be scared be thankful you will do well I' will B praying for U.

Drpepper... I'm having my surgery here in my hometown. I'm in north Texas a town called Denison. It's about an hour north of Dallas. I'll be sure and keep you updated with anything I learn. :-) My pre op diet is just like a slim fast type thing. 2 Protein shakes and a healthy meal. I'm trying not to be scared, I think it's just the "unknown" that I'm scared of. Take care and keep in touch!

Pepper' date=' I am June 8th as well, but I haven't gotten insurance approval yet. I start my pre-op on Friday; I am in Wylie, going through True Results in Richardson and having my surgery at Trophy Club.[/quote']

Hey have U heard anything? I started the Pre op diet Friday also but I've not been very successful but each day is better than the day before, all of my commitments are over now, I didn't think much off them when I said ok to the docs office to move my date from the 29th to the 9th of June. I'm really excited today I received a call the other day from the hospital. Saying my insurance will pay 100% for my surgery I feel really blessed today and I truly thank the Lord Jesus Christ for that.

I in Pearland TX just southeast of Houston I started with True Results but they were out of network so after all of my weightloss visits they refered me to one of their Doctors that were in my network.

      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.
