Today I had my appointment to see the dietician for my final weigh-in to get my paperwork sent in for insurance approval. Finally! We also went over the start of my pre-surgery diet which is a low to no carb diet for a couple weeks (ie. no breads,pasta,sugar,juice,etc) I started that immediately. I am super excited to get the ball rolling. She said I will also switch over to a liquid diet one week before surgery but I would see her again before that pending my approval. I also met with pharmacy to discuss what medications I would be taking after surgery and how to take the ones I have now with the new pouch. Then I met with the surgeon and discussed my final decisions about which surgery I wanted and talked about what he needed to put in his letter to my insurance company to help me out. He answered all my questions I had and was very easy to talk to.
