Just waiting on insurance approval now same here hoping to have it done this year due to the deductible. Doctors office said insurance should have it today or tomorrow and if I don't hear back by Monday to give them a call. Fingers crossed

I wasn't expecting to have surgery until January, after my birthday on the 8th. I met with my case manager today and got my date. December 7. A month earlier than I planned. 3 weeks from yesterday. I'm excited and anxious now.

I'm 21st December 5weeks away!! Can't wait!!

Lol wow, that is close when you say it like that! I'm scheduled for 12/16/15, which is the soonest they could get me in. Work picks up big time at the first of the year. It's a desk job, so I should be ready to jump in again before the crazy work gets out of control.

I'm not looking forward to the pre-op diet, but then again I sort of am.... Let's get this going!

When do you start your pre op diet? I start on the 14th December.

I start the pre op diet this coming Tuesday. I have a 3 week pre op diet, shakes mostly with about 200 calories of low carb choices (salads, veggies).

      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.
