I had to go through the same thing for the same reason. Everything turned out ok. Sometimes I think Doctors just want to run our bills up and stress us out.

I'm going thru the VA so I'm not paying anything for my surgery so I guess they are just trying to stress me out. I'm so frustrated I could spit!!! (yuk)

OK so my echo and nuclear stress tests are done, The echo came out good no abnormalities, waiting for the stress test results. I meet with the pulmonary doc next monday to go over those results then with my nut for or monthly weigh in I pray I get my referral next week to meet with the doc at St Lukes to set a surgery date. I'm getting frustrated this is taking to long. 8 months uugggggg!

      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.
