The surgeons office should know what all is next. and should help you with filing your insurance.

Just 2 more days till surgery day. Suddenly I am terrified. I have no doubt I want this I am just scared of the pain. I am in recovery from addiction so i will not take pain meds home from the hospital and I am scared I will need them. Or suffer from to much pain.

Week 1 2 problem shakes a day(mine r premier) and 1 meal with 6 oz of lean meat and 1 c veggies. Week 2 4 protein shakes and clear sugar free liquid. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you

Surgery Monday, 2 night hospital stay, What do I need to take?? I dont wanna pack much but I figure I need slippers and chapstick. Anything else?? i am a terrible packer.

Woohoo Best wishes for a quick recovery and successful journey!!! 4 days left for me.

Sugar free jello is my friend right now. My program allows me as much of it as I want. I have started mixing flavors to keep it interesting. I am on day 4 of all liquids day 10 of preop.

4 more days till surgery day!!! woohoo

not my insurance but i have heard of it being this way... more and more insurances are getting rid of the medically supervised diet requirement. Yes it should make it easier you will likely only need a letter of necessity for your PCP. However, your surgeon may require more than your insurance like Psych clearance. Congratulations on your decision and best of luck in your journey.
