Hi, I am scheduled for 6/30/2014. I am both nervous and excited. I know these last few weeks are going to fly by. I can't wait until the surgery is over. It's been a long road.

Hello, i wanted to know if you're from NY ? This is last month of my requirement journey. ( my around visit with my surgeon on June 4th ) what is to be expected that day ? I'm just so nervous.. Millions of thought racing through my head and no way of putting them on here lol.. I'm just a little worried about the approval. Everyone tells me not to worry I'll be fine.. But heck there's always a little preoccupation ... What do you think .. I have Healt First. My BMI is at 47.. I weigh 253.. I gained maybe 10 lbs since I started in December.. Which I doubt would be a problem being that I need to lose a little weight before surgery..,

Tammie30, don't worry. You will get approved. My BMI was just 40 with no co-morbid health issues and I was approved within three days. I was worried sick but was approved so all that worrying for nothing. I see you're from NY, so am I. Good luck.

In that case, you will be approved for surgery. Again, good luck.

I went today for my final meeting with the weight loss center..I went straight to the surgeons office and made my pre-op appt for next Thursday the 29th...I was told it could be as soon as 2 weeks from that date for surgery..I am to start my pre-op diet of 2 Protein Shakes and sensible low carb dinner. I also have to do a 2 day liquid diet 48 hrs prior to surgery...like so many on here I am excited and nervous too.. I have thought about this surgery for some time now but I had my first appt on April 1st so it has moved rather quickly..I have insurance through BCBS and it only took them 3 business days to approve this surgery... Good luck everyone!!

I couldn't find a June Sleevers forum. If there is one already please direct me!

Well anyway, I'm glad excited that I finally got a date, June 5th.

I am scheduled for June 5th also. I get nervous on and off. Pre diet is not very pleasant but I want the surgery to be without any complications so I have been super compliant. My food cravings have lessened and I am no longer dreaming of cooking like the first week. I'm with journeylite and they gave me the foods I have to eat up until the day of surgery so I didn't have to put much thought into it - which is a good thing.

Wow only 2 days of the Liquid Protein diet. Good for you. I have to be on the liquid Protein diet for 2 whole weeks. I can't imagine me not eating solid food for 2 whole weeks. It's going to be a rough journey.

      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.
