I used a lot of coconut extract, it doesn't add any sweetness to it! My favorite one was teaspoon of instant coffee, cinnamon, coconut extract! I miss it even almost 15 weeks out lol! Congrats on the move on your surgery date! It will fly by now!

Honestly, I don't understand how I waited longer from meeting the surgeon to my surgery date that some of the people on this board have waited from referral to surgery. I think all this trying to get bumped up to the top of the list makes it so unfair for the rest of us patiently waiting our turn. 15 months. I have waited 15 months........ and it would have been 16 months if I basically didn't start shaking in the office because I could not fathom waiting any longer while everyone else was squeezing on through. My body shook. I couldn't breathe. This is absolutely the most cruel and unfair process I have ever had to be apart of.
I'm sorry you feel frustrated, I can't really change that. I don't know why it took longer for you, I don't know why mine was shorter. All I can say is we've both been approved and I choose to focus on that. Good luck with your surgery.
