i've got a date!!!!



Recommended Posts

I finally got a band date of July 22.......I was so depressed at how long it was taking BCBS to approve this and the couple of screw-ups they had made, but all things happen for a reason I guess....Some good some bad. This was a good one. I go on vacation on the 23rd and I can have the whole week to myself and recuperate in private. You see I do home day care and I was concerned about what I would say to parents as to why I couldn't really move to well. My home is a crazy place during the week with 10 kids around. I really wouldn't have much time to myself at all. Now I don't have to be concerned. My DH's reaction was that it was too bad it was vacation. No lobster at the beach...no steamers at the pier. I told him it didn't matter. I have been on 40 + vacations at the beach and this time I will be more concerned with the ocean view and sounds of people having fun, the smell of the salt air and the peacefulness of the waves. I will not be pre-occupied with my next meal. This will be my last summer as a fat person (God willing) and I will spend time reflecting on that. I AM SO HAPPY I WANT TO SCREAM!!!!!!

      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?

      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.
