I start my pre-op diet tomorrow but don't have approval for surgery yet. God willing the approval wiil come soon. I have a date of December 23 for sure if approval comes through. I may also get moved back to the 21. Please say a prayer for me that Humana comes through or I've spent all this money on Optifast for nothing and starved through all the Christmas celebrations.. Does anyone feel like they're about to lose one of their best friends? I do :( . I know this must be normal but it stinks. This too shall pass. Thanks to everyone out there and God Bless Us All.

I will definitely pray for you. I had people pray for me and I know it made a difference. I have Tricare Prime South also known as Humana military and they were extremely quick with getting me approved. Good luck!

Thank you for your prayers. I started my preop diet today. Still no approval. Do you remember how long it took for you to get approval? I know my doctor is doing everything they can for me. I believe it will come through and I'll be ready for surgery on the 23rd. :shades_smile:

Thank you Cheri. I called Humana yesterday and the nurse that I talked to told me that I should get approval before my surgery date. I'm still holding my breath a bit until someone tells me YOU'RE APPROVED. I do feel more confident that all our prayers will be answered. Thank you again for yours. :rolleyes:

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
