I was sleeved7/13

Feel like I'm dying when I stand ugh did I make the right decision? I'm only 19 with severe asthma so I had to stay on oxygen in the hospital and I just got released right now. I feel so alone and clueless in this journey. Anyone have Instagram where I can follow you're journeys to motivate me. Because right now I feel like "wth did I do"

I'm sorry you got denied. I don't have BCBS but Cigna denied me the first time because they needed better notes from my doctor. Once they got them I was approved in a few days.

Haley, besides the group mentioned above, there's also another one called July 2015 Sleeve Support which is very active. The group is set to secret so you would have to friend and PM Helene Valentine Supraner to get an invite to join. Haley, how do I find you to friend on Fb?

I actually joined that group and decided to start my own, drama free :) I wanted a place where all wls patients can be. I made friends who were and are having the bypass and they weren't welcome in that group. Just being honest.

Ihttps://www.facebook.com/S.E.T.B.ME go to this link. It's my page. Thanks

Sorry, I isn't realize the group was not more welcoming to your friends. I'm Pat, I just confirmed your friend request. Would love to be added to your group. Thanks!

      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.
