Hi,

I finished 3 of 6 nutrition appointments, so I hope to be approved in late October and scheduled in November. I am in the Washington, DC area and I will be sleeved at Providence Hospital.

I'm always looking for buddies, but I haven't been on this site much lately. I spend a lot of time with my FB WLS groups, but I will make a note to come here more!

I will be finishing my 6 months supervised October 5th and if Insurance approves I will get sleeved end of October or first of November. I am in Palmyra Virginia and will have surgery at Martha Jefferson Hospital with Dr. Stokes. (fingers crossed)

I'm on track right now for late October / early November. My surgeon will be Dr. Nwanguma, at The Medical Center in Bowling Green, KY. I'm new to the forum...first time posting in fact! I'd love to have someone to talk to that's going through this at the same time.

Let's definitely stay in touch! I feel like the months are dragging on, but I'm trying to be patient.

My surgeon's office scheduled my date on the first visit, which is so odd! I'm November 4th, assuming that I get approved and get all the necessary testing done in time!! I'm happy to see there's some other late Fall surgery friends on here!! :)

Good luck!!

I'm in VA also (Hampton Roads). I graduate from my 12 month program on September 30. Then I just need insurance approval! Hoping for mid October!

      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.
