Hello all! Waiting my approval...



Recommended Posts

Hello! I am waiting my approval. I have everything done and even have a date as long as I get approved. I was told that the paper work was being submitted this week but the doctor never got around to writing his letter for the insurance. Anyway my date is Aug 5th. I hope that date sticks because it works perfect for me. Gives me some time to heal before my daughters 2nd birthday.

Looking forward to getting to know some of you and watching you all shrink!

If interested there is a August sleeve fb page....https://www.facebook.com/groups/AugustGastricSleeveBuddies/

Make sure you get that letter in. Mine was sent without the letter and denied. They had to resend it all again

She said the surgeon was going to write it this week. I hate waiting. I sign the surgery paper work on the 17th. I want to know before I go away for a long weekend. I come home and have to start my pre op diet.

Off this topic but do anyone know how I can find the post I started without going to each board? OR even the board I am following instead of looking for the list each time?

Click on the "gear" next to your name in the top right corner and click on "Content I'm Following." It will list all the posts that you are following or have posted to, which makes you following that post. :)

Is the group private? Can others see it in your list or on your FB page? I'm not telling anyone but a select few.

      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.
