Gosh, that is soooooo frustrating. I know because I had to call my doctors office everyday for 2 weeks to get them to fax all my stuff in. I'm so sorry you have to go through this. Monday morning get started and soon all this will be a bad memory.

Now the real wait begins! My PA emailed me to let me know that she has submitted my paperwork to the insurance and they tell her to wait at least 15 business days to hear back from them.

I have Anthem BCBS' date=' so if you have the same insurance...how long is the real wait?[/quote']

I had my information all sent to the insurance on Thursday last week. They told me that it could take up to 15 days.... That is going to seem like an eternity. I am so excited to start this journey!

I just checked with my insurance company (Premera Blue Cross) and was told that the request is pending and they have 15 business days to review to provide an answer. They received everything on 2/11 and now I just have to wait. I'm so anxious. I am hoping it won't take the 15 days....

I would follow up with your surgeon's office to find out what is going on.

      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.
