OMG I am a crying mess! My insurance has approved the procedure. It was so sweet, the customer service rep said "Brandi, I'm very happy to inform you that you've been approved. I wish you much success!!" I almost dropped the phone.

It's happening. It's really happening. I can't stop crying. LOL

LOL nope. I literally was approved as of 7am this morning. I was stalking the insurance company because they kept requesting more information in the pre-cert package. I was honestly just calling to see what else they needed...wasn't prepared for this happy news AT ALL.

The letter was sent out, so I should be getting a call in the next week or so to set up a date. <-----I can't believe I just typed that.

      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.
