Congrats on being preggers!!!! You can get the band later, now it's time for the baby! That's wonderful.

You know, I was just looking up your profile yesterday and wondering where you were. It said you hadn't logged on since the middle of last month. Where have you been?

Been busy with RL stuff. Going through custody battle with my ex-husband. And towards the end of July i was moving and then hurt my neck. Had a minor tear in the ligament in my neck as well as pulled and strained muscles. So i was i n a neck brace for about 4 weeks. And in bed most of that time. Just now trying to get things back on schedule. Not on the computer near as much since the weather has been great, kids have been keeping me outside everyday. But yea *huggles miss ya bubble!

I would talk to your doctor and have him send a letter to Insurance asking how long the approval is for. I would hate to see you have to go all through this again. Congradulations on approval and new kid on the block. Keep us posted.

insurance said my weight loss history is for 2 years and the approval is good as long as i stay in good standing with my employer and keep the min. hours for the insurance. which is 20 hours a week :cool: plus the family medical leave act helps me keep my hours up so i wont lose my insurance when i got on medical leave afterwards

      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.
