Got my insurance approval today. Excited to have procedure done October 26th! Currently eating high Protein, very low carb diet. Starting weight 400lbs! Down to 375 in 5 weeks. But I've lost 90 lbs before!! But just can't seem to keep it off! I am sure that this is the answer I'm looking for!

Well I found out my Dr is making a change from his practice.. He's still doing surgery at my hospital as well but he's moving from his current prsctice to the school. Of medicine there in that town and will be teaching bariatric surgery! It's awesome to know he's that good.. But now it'll be a few weeks before they have his schedule for. The rest of the year and guess who's in the group that gets to wait?? Me!! I'm so aggravated so.. I hopefully will still be October.. But just near the end of the month.. If not it'll be November.. I know it's worth the wait but ugh!

      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.
