I'm halfway done with all of my appointments and super nervous. Mostly about the approval. Other than that, just excited to be so close to changing my life! What's your date??? How are you feeling about it???

Hi! My date is 2/6/18... I’m super excited and looking forward to this new chapter in my life. I started my process back in March - so needless to say I feel “relieved” that I am in the “home stretch”. I was nervous about the psych evaluation and the insurance approval - both went easily so don’t worry! Yay us!!

Yaaaaaay! Your date is the day before mine! Nice! They'll be submitting my application for approval around January 11th. I'll be on pins and needles until I hear those magic words. I completed the psych. Just have the pulmonary and Gastro Dr's left. I know those will go fine.

      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.
