Hi, Best of luck to you getting your surgury date. I am on day 3 of diet and set to start healthy roads next week. I feel really torn still between dieting and losing weight, just to regain, and not trying and riding out the 6 months.I am required to be on medically supervised medifast,so it's not cheap! I feel if I'm spending all this money,I should try, but have always regained lost weight and then some.So far I am giving it my all and following medifast program to the letter. The most discouraging thing so far is the fact that my surgeon goes by bmi after the diet, not from 1st appointment.My bmi is currently 41.5 so without co morbidities I will not have the surgury at less than 40 bmi. My insurance to this point would not pay for diet , nutrionist, dietician or any other sort of program and now that i weigh 260 they will pay for healthy roads! Seems like a back asswards way of doing things! The only good thing is knowing I am not the only one dealing with this........Good luck with your 2 weeks and hope you get your surgury appt. asap!
