lis463 11 Posted July 15, 2013 Got a call today. Insurance approved the surgery. Definite date of August 27th. Pre-surg appointments all on August 9th. Excited and nervous. 2 week semi-liquid diet (Boost glucose control shakes 4x/day with 3 oz chicken breast and 1 cup non-starchy veggies each dinner.) 1 deaddemmama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
