Seminar Delayed



Recommended Posts

:rolleyes: This is the 4th time my seminar has been delayed. I got a call that Dr. Davis had to go out of town and the seminar was delayed until 1/21/08. I could have switched to Dr. Marvin and kept the original date of 1/16 but I decided to stick with Dr. Davis. I can't even make an appt for the dr. consult until I have attended the seminar.

I know it is only 5 more days and I have a long way to go to get through insurance approval, but I am still disappointed and wanted to vent. *sigh*

Hey NoMore.

Is that the Doctor Davis that has the TV show on TLC? I watched last night. If so, maybe you can be famous!

I'm also in the 50's group and got banded on 12/18/07.

Yes, it is and I have never seen the TV show but have heard about it from friends. I spend most of my spare time surfing the net and knitting and don't watch TV much except for football games. Yes, I am kinda odd LOL.

Thanks for the encouragement christasha - it is easy to get discouraged when you have failed so many times with diets and weight loss efforts. And once I have made up my mind I want to move forward, but I am working on patience since this will be a 2-year process to get to goal weight and a lifelong process to keep it there.

      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.
