kheter55, I'm impressed how quickly you got through your program, I first saw my surgeon in July 2016 (and I did not have a 6 month program with my insurance). Many, many appointments but........ my day is Jan 25th. Good luck to you and all the other Jan 19th's.

yes, I'm surprised too. The whole month of December was full between Pulmonary, Cardiac Drs., a nuclear stress test. all the classes and support group meeting, the nutrition visit. Tomorrow I have my endoscope, Tuesday the primary Drs clearance. Thursday to the dietician at the supper market for a tour and then I'm done. I am only 11 days till surgery.

My first appointment was 9/22 and all the evals,egd, and classes were in October. Then after my third follow up appt in Nov I was submitted. I think my Drs office shoots for the 3 months and then the 3 week insurance approval.

Hi. I'm the 25th January so nervous.

Sent from my SM-G930F using the BariatricPal App

I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I want everything to go smoothly and wake up with my sleeve done. No complications. I don't want to wake up and be told he couldn't do it for some reason. I am a worrier. I just wish it was the day after surgery right now.

Blessings to you all! My consultation is Monday. How long before the actual surgery from step 1?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My 1st visit with the surgeon was 11/15/16 and my surgery is on 1/19/17. It all depends how many nutrition classes your insurance requires. Mine only require one nutrition class.
Does anyone know if you fail the nicotine test will they cancel surgery.

Most surgeons will yes. Mainly due to the healing that smoking will prohibit.

      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.
