  5. Woohoo I am on the 13th as well! I am ending my day 3 of the full liquid protein diet. Yesterday was tough. Today I was hungry but not moody and weak. So much better!!

  9. I know what you mean. Since I do not have 100+ lbs to lose people act like I am being lazy in having surgery. They don't live with the struggles I have trying to lose to only gain it back and more.... they don't live with the aches and pains and doubling my blood pressure meds and on and on I could go. Just because I do not complain all the time of my weight doesn't mean I am not suffering from the effects of it. Trust me, I would much rather go on a diet and lose the weight and live happily ever after. But I can't do it without this help. I too was not going to tell anyone till afterwards, but when you work in an office with people and are with them more than your family, they just find out. Most have been very supportive. I have made it clear when talking about it that I don't really care if others are against me having it done. They don't have to live with the decision I am making.... I do! I say it nicely... but matter of fact. My hubby, parents, and grown kids are VERY supportive of me... that's all that matters to me. My hubby is doing the liquid diet with me starting Monday even. He wants to drop a few pounds and show his support of me and what I am doing. We cleaned out all the food of the house today since we start Monday. I feel so sorry for those on here who's spouses are not supportive at all.

  11. I am so excited. Just had my pre-op appt today. All is done with appointments and tests. Now it is the liquid diet starting Monday and then my sleeve on the 13th. I am so excited!! I attended my first support group meeting this afternoon as well. I will be having my surgery at the KC Bariatric Center in Lenexa KS with Dr Hamilton.
  12. My surgery was scheduled for about 4.5 weeks after the approval was rec'd
  13. I am having my surgery with Dr Hamilton on the 13th of October. I am at my max out of pocket too so I am sorry I can't help you out either with your insurance questions. I suggest calling your ins co and ask them to explain it to you. Good luck!!
