Send some good thoughts my way-My last check-in for the mandatory 6 months of supervised diet, endless labs, classes, support groups, etc is TOMORROW. I'm really hoping they submit to insurance and start scheduling me for surgery!!!

Today is a very important day for my family! I need all the prayers and positive thoughts I can get. I leave at 10:30am for my doctor's appt-should be last of my six month check-ins, and my hubby has a VERY important interview today. Send those positive thoughts and prayers our way. I'll update later. (HOPEFULLY I GET MY DATE!!!)

Hi everyone, just an update. Doctor's appt. went well. My doctor is now "writing the letter" to the insurance company for approval and I'm awaiting a call from the hospital for a date to meet with the surgeon and HOPEFULLY get a tentative surgery date. I'm getting jealous of people who have their dates! :)

Also-hubby's interview went well. THANK YOU GOD!!!

UPDATE!!! I FINALLY GOT MY SURGEON MEETING DATE-I meet with him on Feb 25th!

      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?

      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.
