My surgery is slated for 9/28. :) I started my journey in January, I can't believe it's finally scheduled and "really" happening. I have a whole host of testing to get done in the next few weeks. Good luck to everybody!

But I will be so excited to hear everyones progress along the way!! Yeah September Sleeve Sisters!! Keep in touch everone!

Hi Calgary, I just checked out your surgeons website. It sounds like you have made a fine choice! All the best!

May I ask, what are her rates? I am getting a revision which certainly costs a bit more than a sleeve alone, but any information would be helpful. Your surgeon seems like a lovely lady. :thumbup:

I saw on here there was a product called Complication Insurance for people having a vertical sleeve. I am trying to decide if I should go with the sleeve or with the band. Does anyone know about the specific risk differences and if Complication Insurance is available for both surgeries?

      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.
