So, I'm anticipating the 2 week liquid diet required my surgeon. Starting 6/13. I've been drinking protein shakes as meal replacements for the past 3 weeks and eating very low carb. I home his will help the transition to liquids. I've been tempted to have a "last hurrah" weekend, but I'm thinking that would only make it harder to start liquids Monday. So, I will stay the course. I just want to get to that loser's bench now!

I've been stalking this forum for every tidbit of info I can get. I started this process (my journey) back in February at the Cleveland Clinic (top notch !) Today I met with the doctor they jokingly call "the closer". My very last appointment and he made the call - now they've approved me and sent it off to insurance. Fingers crossed, they're hoping to schedule my surgery in June. I have such mixed emotions about this. I wonder how I got to this point? And I hope I will be as strong as the folks I've seen on this forum. I'm doing this for health and energy and to feel good. My fingers and toes are crossed as I wait for news from my insurance company.
