I heard from my insurance company today and she told me my tentative date is September 9 also! There are several of us with that date. My brain tells me this is the right thing to do. But I'm also a great big chicken. I haven't had the pre-op class yet to really know what to expect.

Hey Heather! I can't figure out how to copy and paste but I'm agreeing with you on your surgery date. I can't seem to find anyone on the 13th so now I'm wondering if its because its Friday the 13th? I'm starting to think we should've picked different dates. I am just so ready to get this done! Hope we still run into each other at the hotel.

I'm on the 13th tooo!! I always find it to be a lucky day for me so I'm very happy to get it. I'm sure it will be lucky for you guys also!

Ok, All. I'm ready to make the September Sleevers 2013 group, but.. I have to say who I want to add to start it. And none of us our friends on there yet. So....

I'm private because I'm an educator, so you can't search me. But if one of you wants to PM me your name, I can add you in and we can start this.

Oh goodness. I sound like a shady salesmen.

or we can all just use Sassy Sleevers, which is lovely but HUGE.

Does anyone know or have a list of all the Vitamins we'll need post op? Or is this something our doctor gives us because it may be different for everybody?

      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.
