Hi All!
After I completed all my testings and blood work, at my followup Friday (Aug 11th) they doctor's office went ahead to put me on the surgery calendar for Aug 28th. All paperwork was submitted to the insurance company that day as well. Today the office called to inform me that my sugery was APPROVED! They nor I expected a fast 1 day turn-a-round!
Now my nerves kicked in. My pre-op diet starts the next week 20th. It consists of 3 protein shakes and 1 meal per day. I don't think I'll have any issues as the dietician informed me that I can break the one meal up any way I want to for that day. Thankfully, I still have restrictions from my sleeve surgery in 2017.
Has anyone had the revision with success stories? Any tips? Any of you have upcoming revisions scheduled? Additional weight loss success?
Has anyone had the surgery with little to no help at home? If so how was it for you?
I would love to lose an additional 40-50 lbs.
Thanks!
