OMG the nerve of these people



Recommended Posts

I received a call today from the hospital regarding my approval or denial so this is how our conversation went

Me:Hello

Her: Hi, Can I speak with Ashley please

Me: This is she

Her: This is Mary from Bariatrics

Me: Hi, How are you?

Her: I am fine I was calling to schedule your surgery because your insurance APPROVED the surgery.

Me: OMGoodness are you serious ?

Her: Yes, How is Feb 5th

Me: YES, are you serious?

So I have been screaming at the top of my lungs since she called and told me...

I would not be here or would have achieved any of my goals with out GOD, HE has been my ROCK and my SUPPORTER, HE has seen me through it all and I THANK HIM

It's so funny cuz I related soooo well to your other thread about things never going smoothly for you and I knew how that felt. My papers were submitted yesterday and I'm telling myself "something has to go wrong" so I'm awaiting the bad news but I hope it works out like yours did... Congrats!!!

Go up to the top right corner and click on your name (assuming you're logged in), and then click on 'Edit My Profile'. From there, click on Signature, and on that page near the bottom, there's a part you can click on that says you can create tickers. From there, just follow the instructions. If you need additional info, please let me know!

Keep your faith, i was just talking to my sister in law who is also my BF and number one supporter and I told her how my conversations went with God and she laughed because I went back and forth with begging to.pleading to lettingbit go and back again. I am praying for you because i know the feeling. i was also shocked that it only took 3 days for an approval. My fav saying is Let Go and Let God. Never give up, your health is worth the fight

      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.
