We have a lot of March bypassers!! Whooo hoooo! I have 3 weeks to wait, and after 6 months of classes so my insurance would pay for it 3 weeks still feels like it will be a longer wait!!

Might be March not sure yet insurance has approved, just waiting for doctor to find out. 37 y/o 6'2 440 at my heaviest, 420 now, with sleep apnea, no other issues luckily. Used to be army infantry. Dr Hamilton in Topeka KS will be my doctor. So stoked when I found out my out of pocket is 200 for surgeon 40 for preop visit co pay, and 100 a day up to 500 for inpatient at bcbs center of excellence in topeka. I have fed bcbs standard.

My fiance is getting sleeved on March 2nd - 9 days is going to fly by! I've not had any surgery, but I'm looking to connect with other spouses like me, especially if they're responsible for the family meals, like I am.

Very excited for all the March surgeries and wish everyone the absolute best with procedure and recovery!

3/16 here. Freaking out a little. My birthday is 3/10 so I was secretly hoping it would be that day, but my surgeon only does them on Wednesdays, alas. 308 (330 to start) - looking to lose at least 108lbs (that seems just crazy to type - but it's the potential reality).

Good luck everyone!

      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.
