Don't know yet, I've been kicked around, finished one program end the 3 surgeon's had a commitee meeting and decided not to complete my surgery. Rotten so-and-so's. So I have to head to a couple seminars for the other 2 programs in Columbus, hopeful they will accept me. I went and need my surgery.

But why has it been so hard for a surgeon to stick around ?

That my dear,is the $64,000 question. I did everything they asked, everything the insurance asked, was waiting for my date, surgeon's office calls and says that message. As near as I can tell after psychologist told me to my face(in the presence of my adult son) I had passed perfectly sent them a report that I was unfit, not balanced properly for surgery which you can see isn't true. So I have to go begging for a good surgeon and surgical outcome. I am bewildered and a lot angered by all this, but it will not discourage me for I am strong resilient and,lived too long to be thwarted. I will have my surgery!

Ready for this? Medicare and Medicaid and all they really requires a BMI of over 40 and mine is 47 and a letter of medical need from a licensed physician which my PCP was very happy to do. Oh I believe it's all in that verdompt surgeon's lap, I only saw him 2-3 times, so I'll never understand why he did such a thing. Why string me along for that period of time if this was planned all along?.? I am a sweet kind considerate person and didn't deserve to be treated in this manner!

Medicare only pays a standard set amount, maybe he felt he wouldn't get repaid enough to support his lavish lifestyle? Danged if I can make sense of it all.

      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.
