Hi all! 

I got insurance approval today and I am booked for surgery on
August 15th!!

I started the pre-op diet today and it isn't too bad but I am pretty hungry.

The only downside was that I was told by my nutrionist at our meeting that the Optifast shakes were included in the program and there was no charge for them.  Well, much to my surprise they are NOT. 
And they are incredibly expensive.

The PA at the office said that I could do Slimfast shakes for the weekend but on Monday I have to go to the office to pick up the Optifast shakes.  I have to dip into my rent money in order to get them.  I'm not sure what I am going to do but I have to put my health first.  Hopefully, there will be no more surprise costs before surgery. 

That is making me very nervous.   After paying for all the deductables for all the tests and such I had to pay for I am broke!

Well, I guess I don't need to buy food for the next 2 weeks so I can dip into the grocery kitty. 

I can't wait for August 15th to come and I am very excited about finally getting the surgery and starting my journey on the healthy trail.


Eagerly waiting,
Katie
