Really worried because passport had not arrived!



Recommended Posts

I'm leaving for Mexico this coming Monday the 17th and this is the 4th week waiting on my passport. I'm so worried I will not get it in time!

I think you can call and find out the status of your application. Also, I see repeatedly that all you really are asked for is driver's license and birth certificate. If your birth certificate is with your passport application and you're reallly reallly worried, I'd work on getting another copy as back up before you go.

I think you can go to your regional passport office for same day passports. You may need to call first for an appointment. But, I would first see if you can check on the status of yours.

Best of luck & well wishes for your surgery.

Arrggghhh!!! Of all the crazy things I thought I had received my passport today, instead it was my birth certificate!!! I cannot believe it came before my passport! Most people on here say they receive their passport first then the birth certificate later. This is just my luck! Hello I'm leaving Monday!

Edited to add I just received my passport today 6/15/13! Nothing like waiting till the last minute!

      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.
