Recommended Posts

My paperwork was submitted Monday and I just got my phone call today that my insurance approved! They asked if next Thursday, April 4th would be ok and it kinda knocked the wind out of me. After 8 months this is really happening....fast. I now know what all you post-opers felt like. Every time I think about it I'm excited, scared, nervous, heart palpitations you name it I'm feeling it!

I know! My surgery center will not give a date until approval from insurance is received, but even then they told me my surgeon was 2-3 weeks out for surgery so I thought I had more time to get things in order. Since I'm so excited that I can't even sleep I've been up since 0200 ordereing Bone Broth, Protein, you name it, so I should be ready come Thursday 😊

      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.
