my paperwork was submitted on Friday and I'm hoping to hear an approval date soon hopefully by the end of this week please be in prayer with me that it gets approved

I have been so nervous from the beginning just to make sure I do what needs to be done to have it approved my blood pressure is still high (I'm not good at taking pills )so that might be an issue I didn't lose any weight during 6 months of nutrition visits..but I stayed gain either

I have a question if you're not good at taking pills how are you gonna handle the Vitamin regiment that's at minimum 4 pills a day

Are you just slack, or do you have trouble swallowing them?

This is something you need to sort out.

I have been on Bari active chewable Vitamins for three weeks. They taste good! Two a day each of multi Vitamin and Calcium. I do not wanna lose any hair, therefore, I am taking my Vitamins without fail!!!!! Plus I don't wanna feel sluggish

I feel so good right now after having surgery Tuesday, I can't imagine feeling sluggish or weak or tired. That's why I started variation vitamins almost three weeks GeForce surgery, including weekly B12 nose spray.

Should be before surgery :)

I think my doctor was the bomb. I feel so good!!!

I GOT APPROVED!!!!

slack but I know I have to do better

Congrats on the approval!

I get slack with Vitamins, usually, but I also take two prescribed medications so I'm planning to keep my Vitamins close by to remind me. I just need to think of it as another prescribed medication, I guess.

      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.
