Makulafamy 55 Posted August 26, 2009 Any ideas on what to do to pass the time until I get an approval my docs won't go to testing and physch evals until after then. Do you WLS ideas or just ideas in general. Ideas in general: reality tv, tetris, memorize flags of different countrys? For WLS, you could start to ease off things you will have to rule out during your preop and postop phase. If you are a pop/soda drinker, try to stop now. Drink more Water...find things you can add to Water that you might like? Try replacing a meal with a Protein shake or at least find some you can come close to enjoying? Start walking or working out (if you dont already) Read lapband blogs? lol...I kill lots of time like that. The link to mine is in my signature. Hope some of that helps! I know waiting sucks!

kechianyree 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Thanks I was looking for WLS, and I've been trying those I'm not big on soda, bread is the killer I'm trying to back off and increasing the work outs I kinda of heard (from ins co) that I've been approved but haven't heard from the dr.s office yet I think once I have a date I'll be mucho excited. I know I can spend hours on this site as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mia26 0 Posted August 28, 2009 WORK ON YOUR DIET!!!! Especially if you have to do a pre-op liquid diet. Start decreasing your calorie intake now. Stop eating out alot (if you already do) this will help with withdrawals! GOOD LUCK!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pickles123 0 Posted August 29, 2009 I had to have my testing before I was approved. You are lucky. You can sit and count the money you saved by not having to do the testing first. Ha Ha 3 weeks and still waiting for approval Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
