So my question is the liquid diet for two weeks because my pre op class is the 28 and my surgery is on the 7th ? Can someone help me out

I had my preop class in November... long story.
My liquid diet is 3 weeks long. 4 shakes a day. Surgery on the first.
It varies by program.

All is well on my end! Start my liquid diet Wednesday, and have my preop appointment on Valentine's Day. Making my costco run tomorrow to prep for it.

The same reason why you have to pay copays at times.
My insurance is covering the actual surgery cost but I've had to pay 120 in actual copays.
Be thankful that it's only 215 and not the 14,000+ of the actual surgery.

I'd be the same way! I have my last appointment with them before my surgery on the 14th and then I'm well on my way!

I didn't have a problem getting approved and at one point in time I gained.
It really depends on your insurance.
-
So your first appointment is in February, it could be expected in July. But it can take 3 weeks + to hear back from insurance (unless you're like me and continue bugging them)
However, my insurance required 6 months as well. I started in April or last year (the 8th to be exact) and just got approved 2 weeks ago with a surgery date of March 1st, so that's almost a full year.
Some have it right on the money, others have delayed times like myself. Make sure you have every possible appointment you may need within these 6 months so that things can be squared away.

Because we've never been upset and said things out of context before?
Anyways, I'm so sorry this happened. I'm glad that they were able to reschedule. Take a breather. It's hard. But.. YOU ARE OKAY!!! Remember that and keep it moving.

I have my surgery on the same exact day, and am kind've in the same situation. My girls are 2 (twins, born in April 6th) and am in the same predicament. My mom will be able to help me for a couple of days but I'm so nervous for afterwards.

I was in the same boat. My BCBS didn't cover it, but my UHC did!

I'm a single mommy to twin girls who will be 3 in April. I am right there with you. The fears are way less concerning than the thought of losing my life over being obese forever.

Gym shoes?

I want a new pair of gym shoes besides my good ol' trusty nikes.
I have a wide foot, and I want something different.
Are new balances good? Sorry for the randomness.
