Going CRAZY!

I have been on the optifast for a week and am going in tomorrow to get week two and I still haven't gotten approval from the insurance company yet!!

Not eating sucks and waiting for approval sucks - but I'm trying to keep the best attitude I can!

Please cross your fingers for me that CTCARE will give the okay for this revision!!

good luck on the approval... what kind of revision?

Thanks! I'm going from band to RNY gastric bypass.

Good Luck Tammy.  I hope the approval comes through for you.  I've been trying the five day pouch test and I can't even get through day two without having to eat something solid.  I feel your pain.

I hear ya on that one Bev. I had some bean soup the first night and the second day was allllllllllll soup. The protein shakes made me sick. I tried to stick with the protein the next few days but the nausia (might be preggers) had me eating some crackers. The good news is I was able to break my sugar cravings. I don't want any candy or sweets. Well, I do want frozen Snickers (only frozen) and powdered donuts.

Hope they approve! I would be pissed if I had to do the optifast and then not be able to have surgery.

Tammy I know how difficult waiting can  be and only having the optifast and no real food. But you will get through it. If I were you I would call the insurance company and just ask if they received all the necessary paper work, maybe they will have an answer for you.

Hang in  there.

 Fingers crossed!. I am sure things will go well.
