I will be starting my liquids on the 30th. Hopefully there will not be any more postponements or surprises! If I get delayed again I am going to be pissed! I have been working on this for so long, I just want it done and behind me already. I want to get on with my life. I know in my brain its for my own good, but part of me keeps wondering why does this have to be so hard!

Why do you have to have major arguments with Insurance companies over a life saving procedure! The state of healthcare in America is appalling! Years ago, if the doctor said you needed an operation, you had that operation. Now Insurance companies have to argue about it for a year or two before you get said operation. It just doesn't make sense!

Can you give me the name of the page? This link wont allow me to open it probably because you got it under your name?

      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.
