Houston Tx, any June sleevers?



Recommended Posts

My surgeons office submitted everything toy insurance for approval last Tuesday 5/7, insurance said they would let us know in 7 - 10 business day if I am approved. They put me down to have my surgery on June 7th. I am dying to get approval from insurance , the stress an anxiety of the wait is driving me insane. I feel like my life is at a standstill because I don't want to participate in any kind of social functions until after my surgery. I have been reading this site for a while and this is the 1st time to post.

Harlie6pak35, we are in the same boat....scoot over. They gave me a date and I have to wait till things are approved as well. I really wish they didnt give out the date until it was already approved because it just makes you so anxious and nervouse WAITING for them. UGHHHH, I am tired of waiting...I just emailed my case worker for some kind of update....so nerve wreaking

Ok, So I just got off of the phone with my surgeons office. Pre-Op date is 5/31 and Sugery is set for June 6th.... Wow, 3 weeks away :D I am super excited and can't wait for my new life to start.

I wish I could figure out how to put one of those weight thingys on my profile, but for some reason I can't figure it out.

I asked my Docs office if I will need to be on a liquid diet before sugery and she said "No" that suprised me, She said just for the 12 hours before sugery not to eat or drink anything.

So I think I am gonna go ahead and buy me some Unjury for after surgery to be prepared. Any body got any other things I can do to get ready for surgery? anything I should buy ect.. :)

      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.
