  1. Wow I have to try that... Thank You
  2. Today is day one of Pre-op diet, I have been using the bathroom so much. Today was horrible and I have 13 more days of this! I have to make it pass the taste of this chalky protein shake... Blaaaahhh... Tomorrow is my Pre surgery work up so let me sleep.. Long day ahead...
  3. Pre surgery liquid diet starts tomorrow or should I say today... Pray my strength!
  4. My surgery will be August 28th @ 10:00am with Dr Juarez, hope I spelled that right. Yea me!
  5. If you follow your doctors advise to the letter, and be honest with surgeon so that he/she can provide you with the best results for your situation, than you should not have any problems. Plus we don't know what she has or has not done to have the results that she have. That's why it is so important to disclose all facts, even the ones you think are silly.. Vitamins, OTC pain meds, etc. but to her one bad experience their are thousands of good ones. And all who swear that this was the best decision that they have ever made.. They wish they have done it sooner... I advise everyone who is unsure about this procedure to put it off till they are 100% for sure. Because it is major surgery and it is a life style change.. If you are unsure you won't stick to it and you will gain the weight back.. But insurance will not cover for the second time unless to correct.. Well I hope I was helpful.. I wish you the best...
  6. I got my approval today! Projected date 8/27/13. Waiting on scheduling to confirm surgery date... 201 class next Tuesday...
  7. I am so sorry to hear that! But I believe in the name of Jesus that you are healed!
  8. You can do it! If you must get sugar free Jello. And lots of Popsicle sugar free of course.. Ooh only see through Jello not pudding! You are already done, you just don't know it! Way to go, and keep up the good work!
  9. How long after the surgeons office submitted your file did you receive a approval? And why in the world did this woman request my file after I had her supervisor switch her for another nurse?
  10. I have The same insurance but for Rail Roaders so different guidelines. A nurse name Lynn called me! That was the worse phone call of my life. She was beyond rude, and insensitive to how this decision to have surgery is a emotional one on anyone! I called the supervisor and was greeted with a handful of I'm sorry's and let's make this better! They assigned me a new nurse, who suppose to call me ASAP. "that was Thursday. Then Friday 8/1/13. my surgeons office call me to tell me called and requested my file! OMG! Monday can't get here fast enough! I'm just hoping for the best! Everybody pray for me! Because that woman is a Vacation!
  11. Don't forget to walk! I will pray for a speedy recovery for you!
  12. Walk, walk, walk! And have a speedy recovery!
  13. Paperwork was summited to Insurance 08/01/13. I am praying for a August date!
