Hey Ladies and Gents!

Having my Surgery done April 4th. Starting my Pre op diet tomorrow. They said Protein shake for Breakfast, small low fat/sugar lunch, Protein Shake for dinner until surgery. Any suggestions for the low fat/sugar lunch suggestions?

Im heading down to LA to get it done. They will arrange for me to be driven to and from there as I live in San Jose, Ca. My hubby is going to come with me for support. Hopefully they will give me enought pain meds for the ride home. Heh Woot! I'll be a Hollywood starlet by next summer haha!

So who else is getting banded in April? I could use a band-buddy for my journey!

Hello Good Afternoon,

I am scheduled to be banded 4/17 pending insurance approval. I have all my ducks in a row and paperwork needed. I'm just a bundle of nerves awaiting the approval letter. I have always been told there is power in the tongue, so I am speaking it into existence. Despite my own positive reinforcement I have a nagging voice saying....."what if...... What if......"!!!!!! Help any soothing words I'll take!!!!!

I know how you feel future that was me the last month lol. I kept bugging them... "Did I get approved now.....how. 'bout now...lol." Then the day comes when u hear "you got approved" and a big sigh of relief comes lol. Good luck and you will be approved before no time. Just keep yourself busy in the mean time. ~_^

I just got my approval on Friday which was about 2 months ahead of schedule as my insurance changed their requirments and did away with the 6 month supervised diet. I am scheduled for April 26 and getting excited and feeling optimistic!

      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.
