Hi! I'm also at UCSD with Dr. Jacobsen. I start my liquid diet August 14th. If I'm doing a 3 week diet and you're doing a 4 week, we're probably starting almost the same time. I have the sample diet and I think you're right. It's difficult but not impossible. Unfortunately I have my birthday, my husband's birthday, and my daughter's birthday all during that 3 weeks. Fun.

Hilarious. I have Anthem H M O.

I have Anthem *** as well. I'm having surgery Sept 4th at UCSD. I did not have to do the 6 month diet and had full approval in about a week. UCSD does all the evaluation appointments at one time (including phych) so it was pretty painless.

I was just approved and have a surgery date of September 4th. I'm in San Diego. Insurance is Anthem BCBS. I'll have a 3 week liquid diet that I'm very nervous about. The process has been very efficient. I had my first surgeon consult July 27th. I met with the nutritionist, psychologist, and internist the same day. Now I just need to control my obsessive tendencies for awhile longer.
