I am approved. It was a process getting to this stage of the new me. Wow!!Going forward to the next step. The doctor's office and my case manager nurse called with the good news. On my way to a healthier me. I have already lost the 15 pounds required by my doctor, but I will keep going. I know the liquid diet will be my challenge. Anyone have any tips to help me with the 2 week diet? I did say I was approved right. lol

Congratulations on your approval! I only had to do a five day liquid diet, and it wasn't really that bad. I tried to stay focused on the end result, and I kept busy getting ready for the surgery. You'll make it.

Congratulations on your surgery, Celestine! I had to do a 7 day liquid diet before my surgery and struggled through it, but I did it. You can, too!
