Soooooo, Today was my last nutritional visit and I had to wiegh 270 or less, ugh so I get on the scale nervous as heck, and GUESS WHAT, I was 270 even yayyyy so I thought :-( so I get in the room and the nutritionist says to me, I'm sorry unfortunately we won't be able to submit to the insurance today, someone must of caculated it wrong, you actually have to be under 268 .....I was seriously about to cry, I said can I please go pee and take off all of my clothes and be reweighed pleaseeee she looks at me weird and says I don't think it will make a difference but we can try. ...I went to the bathroom and stripped to my bra and panties and nervously got on the scale and guess what, 267.2 whoot whoot , I don't know how or what, but between my clothes being off and me going pee I lost 3 pounds so now its a go, There submitting to the insurance today or Monday at the latest then I have to wait 2-4 weeks for the insurance approval, thank you everyone for all of the support and prayers

Good for you for making them let you re weigh! Seriously, kudos! I would have been devastated too, if they made a mistake that messed up my surgery timeline. Give yourself a great big pat on the back! Congrats!

      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.
