After a nightmare of stalled paperwork, surgical nurses telling me there is no room on the dr's surgical schedule - I have a date - December 19th and I found out I was approved by insurance today! I still have mixed feelings about why I haven't been able to do this on my own without surgical intervention. But - to heck with it. I'm doing this to get healthy! And my pre-op diet is very generous. I have a protein shake from breakfast and lunch. A 100 calorie snack between breakfast and lunch and again between lunch and dinner and real food for dinner. I cannot complain.
