I dont have a date yet, but my last appointment is July 16th. I am thinking that i should definitely be in Aug. Are you part of the summer 2018 surgeries group? If not, check it out. There are alot of people in it and one member even compiled a list of everyones surgery date so you can find someone the same date as you.

I’m August 13th and our Summer Surgery Buddies thread is awesome but nothing wrong with having one dedicated to our specific month!

Twos days before my surgery date my insurance denied me because my family doctor didn’t use proper wording in my 6 month pre op visits.

Bummer to the Max! You were being blamed for something that wasn't even your fault. If you are going to be accused of being a sinner, you should at least have the joy of commiting the sin!😝👍

      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.
