Ginger Belle 54 Posted May 30, 2016 Hey brown. Yes these past 2 days all I have done is take in liquids, sleep, and run to the bathroom. The first day my head throbbed so much because I was hungry. Today it has gotten much better. Hopefully by Wednesday I won't recognize any longer that I haven't ate anything and I would have more energy. How long did it take for your insurance approval If you don't mind me asking? I think waiting for approval would kill me before the liquid diet will lol.

Dawnie Doo 184 Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) I'm still waiting Smh next nutrition appt is 6/7. This insurance thing with the "center of excellence" set me back. I could've had a date by now. Smh I'm trying not to get frustrated. I've lost a couple more lbs. Everything else is good. Dawnie_doo Edited May 30, 2016 by Dawnie Doo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginger Belle 54 Posted May 30, 2016 Awwwww well I hope you get a date soon. The wait is terrible. Praying for you dawnie. I know it will happen soon. The diet gets easier as the days go by but I think I would be ecstatic whenever the insurance company let's my doctors know something. Or I call them everyday to get an answer.

Ginger Belle 54 Posted June 9, 2016 You go dawnie. Sending prayers up and praying blessings flow down. I am still getting the runaround. Nothing still submitted to my insurance company and it's been two weeks. Thinking about switching my doctor. Tomorrow is my breaking point if they still haven't submitted. :-0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
