Today i was with my mom at her consultation with Dr.Curry and the insurance lady told me my sister and I were approved. I was not expecting to hear that today. I was just there to support my mom. So glad my entire family is going through with this. July 2nd my sister and I are getting sleeved! I am thanking God for allowing all this to happen so far and plus we have started walking. I walked 1.85 miles yesterday and took longer than most but glad I did it. :)

Congrats! I got my approval today also. I wish some of my family members would join me. Who knows, maybe I'll be an inspiration to them. How cool for your family to go through this together.

Thanks ladies. Yeah it is great we are going though this together. I am even more happy that there is this website. It's like another family but a family of sleeves. We come from all over but yet we experience some of the same things and have the same goal--- weightloss. Feels nice :)

      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.
