Nice! I think they use the TJ Marriott if I'm not mistaken so I will be there the same week :)

Looks like the end of Feb for me also. I spoke with my insurance company yesterday and she said at my next visit have the surgeon go ahead and begin processing the paperwork. I have a colonoscopy next week and then a sleep study the end of this month. I am ready to get going!

My surgery has been cancelled. My doctor doesn't accept my insurance. He does with everything else but bariatrics. Crushed.

Have you already had any appointments like your nut appointments or psych appointments?

Find a bariatric center that does accept your insurance and explain the situation.

Hopefully I will know my surgery date at the end of the month. I go in for my endoscopy on Friday. I will see the surgeon at the end of the month and then I will know. It's nerve wrecking knowing that my surgery date will be scheduled then. ????

That waiting list is crazy!! People will just develop more obesity-related illnesses during that time.

      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.
