Hi girls

I had my surgery yesterday! I had a hard day yesterday, but today I'm feeling a lil better. Chest pain for the gas, but I'm walking a lot! I ate a chicken broth (wacala) today, but very small amount! I'll keep in touch! Thanks for the prayers.

Hey queenie-shelle, could it be thst the approval is good until November? ? I know my letter from the insurance said that my approval was good until December but the surgery is actually October 1st. Just a thought :)

Hey Queene-Shelle glad to hear you got approved. I would stay in communication with the doctor's office on a date. Try not to worry about the month, i know you are ready to start this life changing event but you got approved thats awesome. I say this because look on the bright side some insurances dont cover this procedure and some people dont even get approved for this type of procedure and have to go through an appeal. So i would just keep calling to see when is the scheduled date and i cant wait to see the new you. You are gonna rock this thing so stay positive. GOD BLESS

      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.
