Beck Gal, congrats on your date!

My insurance requires 6-month diet before surgery, so my pre-op educational class will be in December and surgery some time in January (gastric sleeve). Nervous. Super nervous I'll mess up the diet and/or lower my BMI and my insurance company will retract coverage.

I had to do 7 months of visits with my pcp. My bmi was under my surgeon's requirement for having to do a liquid diet pre-surgery... So I'm pretty psyched about it!!

My last of 6 months visit is Nov 23rd. The surgeon wanted all the test done by then, but the insurance was very slow with the referrals and now the pulmonary Dr had no opening until the 25th. I am hoping this will not cause a delay. I still have no surgery date but it was suppose to be in Jan.

I will be sleeved either December 2nd or December 9th. I can't wAit I am so exited for the new me! I have done two classes I have one more to go and my psych evaluation next week. One final nutritional visit on Nov 13th and then it's submit to insurance and get a date. I wonder why I didn't do this sooner.

I'll be the 9th as well ...

      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.
