Yes, all ins stuff is approved. The 6 months went

by very fast. Just waiting for a nurse to call for a date and blood work. Surgery is estimated by the

end of August ????.

I've given up too and looking into MX myself. Only way ill do diet over is if they waive half the months required! Who are you going to in MX !? It seems there are a lot of them and a lot of good ones!!? Hard to narrow down! how much if I may ask? I know that I already was paying 4k out if pocket and I have ins if ever approved.... So another couple thousand and getting it done sooner is worth it! Also my partner is switching jobs in the next few months... I'm going to be writing letters and filing complaints regardless!

I'm on my third week post op with the sleeve and I feel so amazing! you deserve this gift!!!!! if you want I can share my information and get u in touch with my people that held my hand thru the process...

      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.
