Recommended Posts

Had my last weigh in on Monday now Im waiting for the approval from the insurance company. I feel as if I am pacing the floors waiting for someone to make a major decision in my life. After all these months of needles, tests, running here and there its finally down to the wire. Is the person reading my report having a good day and had their quota of coffee or are they gonna make me jump more hoops to be approved. Well enough ranting Im gonna go back to polishing my shoes so I can do the Happy Dance when I get the approval. :)

I totally know how you are feeling. I thought how dare you deny me after I have invested sooooo much time and $ into this!!! But they did deny me at first. My first thought was "oh hell no!" I fought back and was approved a week later. Hang in there and don't take no for an answer. Best wishes!!!

      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.
