Hello I was wondering If anyone has October Surgery dates and how are you feeling about it being right around the corner and how are u spendng your time now that the hard part is over ur approved and have your date

So you are limited to just one cup of those a day? Or at a meal 1 cup?

No reg meals jus shakes, soups 1c veggies, sf jello, popsicles mints & gum.

OMG' date=' Why didn't she ask you to keep a "improved food diary " during your previous appointment? Have they submitted your stuff to the insurance people yet? Im sorry they are having you do extra work at the 6 mo supervised diet [/quote']

This is the first time I met with her.....my 6 mo was with my pcp. ......they can't submit to insurance until I am done with the nut! That's why I was so pissed......oh well nothing I can do about it......guess I will have to be patient!

That is ridiculous!! She should have been clear with things from the jump!! I'm sorry you have this delay

Thanks......when I made this apt I thought it was just like a consult thing and it would only be once.......guess not! What really gets me is that my surgeon and nut are 2 1/2 hrs away! I hate the drive!

anume my doctors office gave it to me

I am sitting at the hospital, my pre op with the anesthiologist ( however you spell it) is at 11:30. It's really getting closer! I am getting so excited!

That's ridiculous for them to waste your time.

congrats!!!! we are the same day

Just got all my vitamins. good thing since my blood work showed I was deficient in several vitamins so I start my regimine early

Well I had my pre-op appointment today & also pre-registeration at the hospital. I had labs, ekg, answered a zillion questions ..asked a ton too! I start my liquid diet on the 1st & then surgery follows on the 15th. Very anxious, excited, overwhelmed... you name it & I've probably felt it! lol I love reading everyone's post here in the October thread because we are going through pretty much the same things.

Got a call Tuesday...I've been approved for surgery and is set up for Oct 3rd. They rushed my approval because my gallbladder is in bad shape. So happy for all the October peoples! Since its kind of quick I've starting getting nervous about getting ready because I haven't bought anything besides the protein mix I already have.

I will update the list this weekend! So happy for you!

Congrats Kerri!! I actually went today to get me a month supply of.vitamins ams a few weeks of soup. Oh and 2 boxes of Gas X. Hope that's enough LOL. If anyone has Kroger's their vitamins are bogo right now good time to stalk up since we will be taking these for the rest of our lives
