Somewhere in this thread, a couple of pages back, I think she posted a link. Also, today, she made a thread. Maybe search her profile and click on her 'theads' or do a search for Facebook (that's in the title).

I have 2 jobs. One job, a nanny, I only women 2 days a week and I will take one week off there.

The other job, I work at my computer 4 hours a night. I will be lucky to get 2 nights off starting postop day #3 or 4.

I'm not taking any time off. My job is not strenous or physically demanding. I plan on watching movies all shift with the residents.

My surgery is on Monday (12-16) and I plan to take that whole week off and work just half a day the following Monday. I'll be off Tues & Wed for Christmas. I have a desk job so I'm hoping this is plenty of time!

Hi all!

I WAS APPROVED BY INSURANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First submission, and it was approved a week later. I called every day! Now just waiting for the hospital scheduler to call and set up my surgery date, and get my pre-op labs taken care of! SO EXCITED TO BE SLEEVED IN 2013!

I'm still not sure of I'm a Nov or Dec sleeve date, but 90% sure Dec. I'm so excited. I've been considering WLS seriously for 8 years! I've tried all I could on my own, and I'm done struggling. It's time to live a new life. Glad to be here, and would love to be added to the Facebook group: lissavsg@gmail.com.

      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.
