my insurance approved my sleeve surgery in December 2013 but I froze.... I have since decided to move forward and my date is 2/10. I am looking for buddies to take the journey with.

A fellow sleever I met in nutrition class found me on her and ironically we are having surgery the same day!! She is the first case of the day and I am the second. We been texting since we are both going through the liver reduction diet together. It is fantastic to have someone to buddy up with. The liquid diet hasn't been bad at all. Honestly I haven't been really hungry but I do miss eating. We are allowed a half cup of non-starchy veggies a day... I been eating a cup. I am going to try to reduce it to a half tomorrow. I have lost 4 lbs already. I feel super sluggish and have to push really hard to get anything done and my gut is making embarrassing noises.

Lucky you....I go to the nutrition class 2/6, so I hope to find a buddy. How long have you been on the liquid diet?

Hello, I have been a lurker on this board for the past 6 months as I completed my classes with Kaiser. I am excited to say all I have left to complete is my last lab and fitness test. I am waiting on them to call me next week to schedule them. I was told by February 23 my surgery will happen!!! It is so great to be at the end of this journey and start a new one... I would love to have a buddy or two talk with.

Hey loving life, lurk no more...... I am so excited for you!!! So at Kaiser do you just do the required steps (classes, labs, tests, etc) and then you schedule surgery or do you then wait for authorization?
