I received a call from my insurance today and they advised I had been turned down for surgery. They advised they had not received all of my paperwork from the surgery scheduler. I just started my two week diet and my nut told me to stay on it. The frustrating part is I have left two messages for the scheduler but I have not heard from her.

Same thing happened to me & once everything was resubmitted, I got approved within a few days!

I have been on the liquid diet since monday the 1st, and it has been awful. I am hungry all the time, even right after I drink my shakes. I try to eat Jello and drink broth so I have a feel of eating something hot and with substance. I have cronic migranes already, and they have just been worse. I have cheated a couple of times, just small meals like I had a chicken breast a few nights ago. I felt so weak I couldn't even get up off the sofa to pee. I am so scared that my moments of weakness will affect me getting the surgery. Does any one know of people who didnt follow the diet 100% get turned away? I am so scared that its gonna happen to me. My surgery is the 15th, which is monday. Please help!

So I've been comparing this process to waiting in line to try a new roller coaster. I have been in line for so long and now I can see everyone get on. I'm getting nervous and excited. Also uncertain if I will like this ride or if I can handle it. The liquid diet is starting today. I'm finally getting in my seat. I'm preparing for impact.

It's crazy it's finally here! I kept thinking the surgery was so far away and it's funny how it just creeps up on you.

This whole comparing to roller coasters is just making me more excited for when I can actually fit on one. Lol

[shershrinking 53]

I like that. Waiting for my ticket to ride too! Good luck!

I'm on day 5 of my pre-op diet. Surgery is July 16. I think I'm over the hump with the anger at being hungry and can't eat what I want. The job had a massive pizza and beer party yesterday. I got so disgusted that I couldnt eat, I went home early! Usually, I'm right there eating Giordano's Stuffed sausage/pepperoni pizza and throwing back beers. I'll never be able to do that again. While they were eating, I put my lunch in the microwave - a Healthy Choice frozen dinner!

I feel my life is changing already! I know it will be worth it - eventually, but oh, what a eating ride I have had over the years. I must admit, I've eaten some really good food *tear*.
