No not yet, i saw the surgeon and the nutritionist today and I go to the psychologist next week Friday. Maybe I'll have a date in two weeks I hope. I'm a nervous wreck right now.

I guess it's the worry of being aproved by the insurance company being able to do all that is asked of me, and if the surgery will go well. It's a lot that I'm worried about

Hey TMorgan, being nervous is so normal, but girl keep praying about it and post your concerns here so maybe we can help you ????. I will say if you've had a c-section that its not as bad as that. Alright I will be looking out for your post☺.

Being nervous is normal. If you have questions just ask. Everyone is here to help. The subject doesn't matter. We talk about everything. Scroll through some of the topics im sure you will find answers. This surgery is one thing I do not regret doing. Every surgery is risky. All I can say is do as your doctors tell you and listen to you body. Good luck.

      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.
