I'm really having good communication with their office now as we are getting close to crunch time. Mary Ellen is my advocate and she is reallly trying to help me out with a unique insurance issue.

Met with the surgeon today and signed consents. She spent about an hour talking to me. Really like her and feel comfortable with her. Should schedule the surgery within the next week. Come on insurance!

I just got approved today. My surgery is with Dr, Hausmann in BR on the 28th. I'm so excited, and a little nervous, too! I live in Zachary, but lived in Tangipahoa parish most of my life, until 2 years ago.

I'm using that same group but am considering Metairie since I don't know as much about their Slidell hospital. I am in Washington Parish

      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.
