How many liquids are you guys drinking on day 2? I decided to stay in the hospital today bc I'm struggling big time Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm also on my liquid diet now. It's definitely tough, just something we have to get through. I'm allowed 60 grams of Protein a day, so it's usually only 3 Protein shakes a day. I've just been drinking a TON of Water, which I think has been helping. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was just wondering what Vitamins you were taking prior to surgery? My surgery is set for June and my Doctor gave me a list of what I should be taking after surgery. Are those the same vitamins you started taking pre-op also? Thanks for the help! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Okay, thanks!

I've been following this site for several months, but just registered today! Anyway, I remember reading that someone was told the day of the surgery that their insurance would no longer cover it. If I remember correctly, it was because they dropped too much weight pre-op. Am I remembering this correctly? I guess I'm nervous because right now I weigh 227 and my nut told me not to go below 221. I feel like I'm going to drop below that number during my 2 week liquid diet and I would be devastated if I found out I'm no longer covered. Has that happened to anyone else?

I told my family first and then two of my close friends. My family is completely supportive! My friend on the other hand asked, "why don't you just work out with me?" Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My BMI didn't meet my insurance requirements, so for me sleep apnea was my co. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey all! I was just approved last week & I set my date for June 7th. I'm a teacher so I scheduled it for the first available date after school gets out. I'm so excited/nervous!
