So upset my surgery date keeps changing first Oct 18 then switched to nov 16 because of the coordinator rescheduled my psych evaluation then called and switched back to Oct 18 because the office magically got more appointments..

started my liquid diet oct 4

Now I get a call saying they haven't heard back from my insurance yet so they are rescheduling too OCT 26

So pissed what am I supposed to do now stay on liquid diet or start over in another week???

I don't wanna waste more shakes n have to buy more

Had my heart set on the 18..

I could cry I'm so hurt they keep doing this.

@@thesstrt

man oh man!!

office changing your surgery back and forth

they have their nerve!! :wacko:

i would be going cray (hubby just said "that's a short trip" LOL )

(we are two peas in a pod!)LOL

well, for now, at least the final change is just one week later than

the earlier postponement!! LOL

look at it this way - surgery 10/26 - NOT November

still disappointed - but you should be ok

if they change their mind again

punch them!! LOL

as far as pre-op Protein shakes

continue or not for one week??

if you can survive another week

with just liquids - that will help

your weight loss (honeymoon period)

liquids only are pretty hard for many

decision up to you

you could ask doc, he might say it's

up to you (cowards way out!)

good luck

speedy recovery

@@thesstrt I would call insurance to find out the status and call your surgeon's office back and tell them that you would like to keep it on 10/18/16. That's not fair to keep changing it on you - it's not as though you're going in to get your hair colored.

In the grande scheme of things, you hit a road bump. These things don't always go so smoothly, like us. But soon it will be history. Good luck.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
