P.S. tomorrow will be one week without Pop. It hasn't been a problem. It is all the food and the continuous weight gain (ooops). My brain thinks that because I'm having surgery- I can eat what I want. Totally backwards I know- but it does. So this 6 month for insurance has really done nothing positive for me. Oh well :)

Waiting is the worst. Have to complete my third nut appt and wait for the advocate to file in early to mis september. Spending my time having food funerals for all the bad things that I love to eat, and will hopefully never eat again.

All this talk of Endoscopes and EKG's- I don't think I have to do any of that but if for some reason I'm mistaken- yet better have a hammer ready to hit me over the head becuse I won't go down quietly ;). Good luck to you both!

I didn't have to for approval, but since this is my first surgery in years, they just want to know I am heathy for the procedure.

I hear you about losing the weight. I saw the surgeon on 7/2 and he wants me to lose another 10 lbs before surgery on 9/5. I haven't lost a pound...if anything i gained 4lbs on vacation and am thankfully back to where i was before. Now i just need to get my exercising in and maybe get the 10lbs off..good luck to you!!

Off topic September peeps- but how on earth did I become an advanced member so quickly and some of of with titles even more intriguing?

Back to topic. I'm sick of waiting. Seriously- days go by so slow- and I don't and won't have a date yet until end of august and even that's not a guarantee with the games insurance companies play.

The end........ For now

Justine

      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.
