I'm in Crystal Lake (Far NW), surgery at Centegra-Woodstock with Dr. Amir Heydari.

My BMI is 46, and I have no comorbidities, not even slight ones. I had no problem getting approved the first time - my insurance is Anthem BCBS and I had a date 3 weeks after I submitted my paperwork. Didn't have to do a medically supervised diet either. I hope your process goes as smoothly!

I'm definitely planning to make lots of sauce, Soups, etc... and I've read that you can freeze them.

I'm getting sleeved on July 10th. We planted a huge garden this year, including 22 heirloom Tomato plants. Realistically, is there any chance that I will be able to eat any of them? They'll probably be ready to eat around the beginning of August, but they're indeterminate and will produce until frost (I'm in northern Illinois, so October). So, 3 months out from my surgery.

I'm July 10th, in Woodstock IL with Dr. Heydari.
My surgeon has the same pre-op program for everyone - regardless of surgery type, weight, etc... 10 days, choice of either Bariatrix or Carnation Breakfast Essentials shakes, unlimited sugar-free Clear liquids, up to 200 cal. of fruit/veg from a list per day.

My date is July 10th too!
I'm on Clear liquids for the first week, so I'd planned on a bunch of flavors of Crystal Light/Mio, sugar free popsicles/Jello, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth, and some of the Syntrax nectar fruity flavors. There are sample packs for the Unjury/Syntrax - I figured I'd get those instead of the big tubs at first.

Just got my date this morning - July 10th with Dr. Heydari in Illinois. I'm so excited!!
My pre-op diet is for 10 days - 5 Carnation Breakfast Essentials shakes, unlimited sugar-free Clear liquids, and up to 200 cal/day of fruits/veg. The Carnation shakes are pretty good compared to other Protein shakes I've tried in the past.
