Surgery next week 9/28/16 with Dr. Le at Integris. Cant wait!!!

Why are other doctors liquid phases soooooooooo long. I have a 10 day diet but the first 8 are basically low/no carb. The last 2 are liquids.

Had my last nut and preop appt on 28th. Doc said about 3 weeks! So, hopefully I will have the pre surgery appt and have it done 3-4 week of August. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have BSBS fed. where did you see that they don't require the 90 day diet? Or is it different between Fed and non Fed? Thanks. Blue cross blue shield. They longer require the diet supervision so I got lucky there. Sent from my SM-G935T using the BariatricPal App Thanks. Blue cross blue shield.

Im starting to substitute protein drinks in to my day now and lower my cal intake. I figure if I ease into it the transition will be better. No cold turkey. Besides, I have 2 more lbs till my goal weight.

No banana hammocks?<br />

I am in the same boat. End of July for my last NUT and surgeon visit. Sometime in August.<br /><br />

Well had my initial consult with the doc. Saw him, Dr. Hamilton Le, the finance person and did labs, chest x-ray, EKG. I have to do the 3 month medically supervised diet (BCBS Federal requirement). Finances were not to bad due to insurance. Good news is I only have to loose 6 lbs and it looks like August for the surgery. Stats so far: Dec. 2015 Weight 298 A1C +9 Apr. 2016 Weight 276 A1C 6.4 On new meds

Well I'm sitting in the exam room. This should be fun. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Monday should be interesting. I am hoping that I don't have to do the 3 month supervised diet crap. I have sort of been doing it with my endocrinologist. Low carb high Protein. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So far I have had no real stall. They are busy and BCBS Fed lists them as a center of excellence. Cheaper out of pocket for me. I meet for consult the 18th. Can't wait! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have a few hundred worth of sticks sitting in my box. I have went nicotine free until after the surgery. Probably a few months after that too. I only smoke about 1-2 a month though. I have a nice Drew Estates I am saving as my first on back<br />
