Do you know who is going first? Maybe tell hubs you should, but things are really up to the Bariatric Center. Important thing is YOU BOTH GET DONE, YOU HEAL TOGETHER, YOU BOTH HAVE GOOD LIVES AND A BEAUTIFUL LIFE TOGETHER !

They told us we can choose but we haven’t decided yet. They said we will follow pretty close either way basically once one goes in they will start getting the other ready. But that’s the idea we will go through it all 100% together

Sleeve scheduled for July 8, 2019. Last weigh in June 18th. Had to do 3 months for the surgeon. Bcbs said there wasn’t a timeframe anymore but moving along.

We have almost identical stats with very close surgery dates! If I can figure out how to follow you back, I will!

That is awesome! I became eligible for bariatric surgery based on BMI after 2 years of a happy relationship. So, now it is time to take off all this weight and become happy and healthy. Of course, my fiance has only gained about 15lbs and can probably take it off in 2 weeks.

      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.
