I found out Monday that my insurance company has rejected coverage for surgery, primarily due to a paperwork snafu with my surgeon's office. Consequently my surgery, slated for 2/13, will more than likely be delayed. While the doctor's office staff is keeping the date open, I know enough about this process to know that I can pretty much kiss 2/13 goodbye.

The real sad part is that I put a whole slew of logistics in place (family coming in from out of state to help with things, postponing business appointments, etc.) that I now essentially can't reverse - and will have to repeat whenever I finally do get approval.

I'm not disheartened about getting approval (eventually, one way or another, I will), or that my surgery will in all likelihood be delayed. I had a sneaking suspicion all along that my timetable would be thrown off somewhere along the way. I'm kind of pissed though that I've either spent or pushed aside around $10K (when you factor in plane tickets for family members, postponing revenue-producing business, etc.) that I not only now will never see again, but which I'll at some point have to repeat.

I think my head's about to explode. The insurance company, in a move I'll never be able to explain, reversed itself. I'm back on for the 13th. Woo-hoo!

      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.
