Don't even want to post on this thread because I really hope to get approved quickly & have surgery in May! Looks like I'm on the May/June fence :( Just in case it doesn't happen in my timing, I'm joining y'all! :)

Im hoping for a june date also. I go for my last diet apt in june 6th and they said I should get approved with in 1-2 weeks. How long until you all found out did your surgery date come? Like from your insurance approval date?

Hello Everyone!!!!! I am new to the forum :)

My surgery date is June 4th. My liver shrink diet starts in May 21st. So for now, unfortunately, I'm eating everything I can think of. Did anyone else do that?

Transformingbri,

I can totally feel you on that. My fiancé joked that with the way I'm eating, I'll end up gaining 30 pounds before surgery. Haha I had a lap band and they took that out a few weeks ago. Now I'm in the process of waiting for the bypass. I'm living it up though! It's so nice to be able to eat without having it get stuck and coming back up, so I'm pretty much in heaven! Hahaha I am concerned that I'll gain a ton and my doctor will put a stop on everything though so I need to find a way to control myself (at least until my last appt with her on the 20th!) lol

What do you want your "last meal" to be before surgery??

      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.
