Best wishes to you! I got approved on 17 Dec. My surgery date is 30 Jan 2013. It seems I've waited so long for approval, but thank God I have a date now. I so wanted to have my surgery in December, but God has a reason for all that He does.

So the countdown is on! :rolleyes:

Wow...since June huh? I'd be definitely excited too. I'm 46 years young and probably 40 of those years I've been overweight, with the exception of my pregnancy of my daughter. I lost 57 lbs during my pregnancy and delivered a 7 lb healthy baby girl.

So congratulations on your date too. I pray for a new lifestyle change in 2013!

Blessings to you!

      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.
