Ok this friday is suppose to be my last day at work so that I can get all my pre registration and stuff done. I cant leave till my drs office fills out my f.m.l.a paperwork. The idiot at my drs office only fills them out on fridays and waits till they have your surgery date to fill them out. They have had my surgery date for 2 wks now and still have not filled them out. They keep saying well she fills them out on fridays and she will get to it this friday. I told them ummmm hello I am to leave work this friday and I need it before then. They are not freaking helping me and Im so getting tired of all this crap. They dont understand that they have had the paperwork for months and that they could have filled it out the past 2 wks but no the lady dropped the ball. And she wont talk to me on the phone and have not returned any of my calls. She has a nice little voicemail waiting on her today. Pray that this idiot will get my paperwork to me before friday. Or that if she waits till friday that my work wont have a issue with it.

Hoping that your paperwork gets filled out! How frustrating.

Hang in there it will all fall into place. Maybe you should stop by the office (if possible) to get the paperwork??? An upset customer usually gets things moving - of course it is the doctors office, so who knows!

Your in my thoughts!

Nina,

I know it's hard to arrange, but pop out of the house a little early on Friday and go raise a little ruckus in the office. You are the customer! Be firm, but not rude, and it will get taken care of. If not, I'm quite an imposing figure and you can threaten them with a visit from that big Hawai'ian woman!

      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.
