I See The Light

[goingfoit 125]

Tomorrow i go for my psyc evaluation which completes the last of my insurance requirements. I had to provide 6 month managed weight loss programs with a registered Dr. or Nutrionist which i completed this month. I believe they are submitting for insurance approval either Monday or Tuesday. I have 2 classes that are manditory and are scheduled for Aug 2nd and Aug 9th. I'm thinking i will be banded sometime at the end of Aug a perfect birthday gift. I'm becoming very excited knowing I will be putting an end to obesity for the rest of my life. For those of you that are on the pre op liquid diet when you were instructed to start that?

i bought a camera recently so i can take before and after pictures to track my progess.

Oh i can't wait.

I was instructed to begin a full liquid diet 2 weeks prior to my actual surgery date.

Best wishes as you begin your journey...

did not have to do a pre op diet, I think it depends on how much you have to lose or depends on the doctor. Good Luck to you as you begin.

God Bless

I am so excited for you! You are getting so close. I have just started my 6mo pre-op diet. If you don't mind me asking... did your surgeon provide a checklist of items for your Dr. to review and add to office notes on your 6 month pre-op? Did you loose weight, gain weight, or stay the same weight during this time? Thanks for sharing.
