Part of my paperwork was an agreement for confidentiality on pricing so sorry, can't disclose my price.

Ditto. I emailed them and they were really fast at getting back with me. I had a call within 1 hour from Carolyn and they emailed me the prices.

Like SoCal states' we agreed not to disclose the price. It aapears you already received the pricing.

Sometimes they change... I wasn't aware that they don't want you discussing the price.

Well, I am on my layover in LAX. I called my credit card company lies letting them know I will be in Mexico. I also found out why my layover is so long, the 3 flights before mine have all been over booked.

 

I had a heck of time getting to sleep last night ... can you say excited, nervous, anxious.

 

And, not being able to eat in the airport has been a killer. I am hungry, and yes I have an injury shake. I sure can't wait until that hunger hormone has been removed from my body.

Mary, I know how you feel, how anyone could possibly sleep the night before is beyond me. In fact, my surgeon actually gave me a pill to help me sleep, lol. Best of luck to you, can't wait to hear how you are doing!

      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.
