Just got off the phone with my surgical coordinator and my date is June 7th. My last weigh-in is May 3rd and I can hardly sleep with impatience. My insurance is pretty straight forward, 6 months and BMI of 40+ if no comorbidity. I've already done my sleep apnea, psych evaluation and upper endoscopy. PCP is more than on board, actually all of my assorted Dr's are. I hope the days fly past like a blink. Any June sleevers????????????????????

Me! My date is June 15, and I just found out 2 days ago. I'm so excited! I was really lucky that my insurance only required ONE appointment with a nutritionist. I still had to do all the other stuff, psych, endoscopy...

Congrats and good luck, CrissyCakes! We got this!!! :)

My surgery date is also June 7th and will be missing out on a few concerts that are happening the week after. It will be worth missing out on them though. ????

Congrats guys!!! Last appointment tomorrow and we can submit. Should be no issue with approval.

This will be her 3rd one that I miss, but definitely worth it. I am so excited for tomorrow and for surgery.

I got approved last week. My surgery date is June 7th too!

I know the feeling. We submit tomorrow. I have put so much into this, I'd be unhappy if they denied. But they are pretty straightforward with what they are looking for. Praying and fingers crossed for us.

      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.
