Recommended Posts

Well I got my info from insurance and my surgery is approved! $0 out of pocket! Excited and nervous now that it is real. Have appointments on 01/24, 02/08 and surgery on 02/14. Still doesn't feel real since, I've been trying to have this surgery since 2015.

Strengthin#ers I sure am. But I'm more excited than nervous. I'm so ready for this. Reading any blogs or posts makes me even more excited for the 20th to get here. It's almost all I think of.

So much good news tonight. Good luck everybody. My file was either submitted to insurance today or will be tomorrow, so I'm hoping to join you all next month! Since we leave for vacation late March, my cutoff to have this surgery is mid February, or I'll have to wait until late April, which would suck...so...bad. Doctor said he needs me six weeks out before I can fly. So I'm still hoping I'll somehow pull this off.

      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.
