I'm in PA. Time sure is flying. I was nervous and think I drove the insurance company up a wall since Friday lol. My employer is trying to give me a hard time with taking time off, so I needed to know asap. I'm trying to collect everything, including my thoughts. This has happened so quickly, I made the decision mid September I needed to make the change and it's already here! Good luck!!!

Im not booked yet but shooting for surgery date the week of Thanksgiving. Still waiting on the Surgeons office to call me for my consult. After the consult is the surgery booking. Good thing I have surgery connections in the OR and know the Surgeons. Been waiting a long time and my mind is ready for my new lifestyle change. Good luck to you all.

      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.
