I just found out from my insurance company that my case was APPROVED!!!! This is real now! Waiting on surgeon's office to call with a date. So many emotions right now. I know this is normal by reading all your posts who have walked this road already. I'm so excited to be healthy again.

I just found out this a.m. I am approved too and what my date is! I called my insurance just to verify they received the paperwork. ( I was told it was being submitted yesterday) The lady amazed me by saying it was received and APPROVED 9/25! She then said I am approved for 10/21-10/22. (Standard to get one day approved then add as needed) So I found out my date before my surgeon's office even told me!!! I am so flippin excited. The date is pretty much exactly as I hoped and it couldn't be better..

      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.
