I wish I could say I was that excited. I feel racked with guilt and nerves and just don't feel as happy as I feel I should be. :(
I'm going to try and upload it. One sec

Because it's expensive and I'm a cash pay customer. I feel like I'm taking from my kids. I know it's not logical but I just feel so bad. Like I could have done better and didn't wait until sh*t htf before I decided it was too late

I can understand that, but just think of it as you are making sure you get healthy for their futures.

I have had so many surgical procedures for my back, surgery does not scare me. I just had a procedure done every other week for 6 weeks and each time I was put under. I am more scared for my consultation and if he is going to make me complete any requirements prior to scheduling my surgery. I really want to get the surgery ASAP. I want to lose enough weight that I wont be embarrassed to go back to Florida for Thanksgiving. I want them to be shocked LOL Now who is dramatic LMAO

Do you have family in Florida. That is actually where my husband and I are from. So we go back every Thanksgiving to see everyone.

CRAZY- I am 5'0" too, I weigh 199 lbs. I am going through insurance. I asked my insurance company if they had any requirements in order to have the surgery and they said no. So I am hoping he doesn't require me to do anything either.

      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.
