That awesome feeling when insurance finally approves your procedure!

I am due to be sleeved in just six short days, and just yesterday I found out that my insurance will be covering it, after all, saving me an enormous amount of money. So, I had to share that relief here! :-)

Any tips for the upcoming days to best prepare? My surgeon (Dr. Bertha) actually does not believe in the necessity of a liquid diet for two weeks, so I have been spared that.

Favorite Protein supplements? Things to have on hand for after the surgery? How to get through the ride home (I'm being operated on an out-patient basis at a surgical center)? Material to read before surgery?

What should I buy? How should I prepare? What should I know?

Many thanks!
