Ahh the US over Mexico... I would double check into your policy. I have UHC and my surgery was covered. It may be that if you are not cover a certain BMI you need a co-morbidity (sleep apnea, high blood pressure) to qualify for the surgery (at least thats what it was for my insurance policy) Some employers have riders on the insurance that do not cover bariactric surgery, I would suggest you call the insurance company and find out.

love them! I too bought the sample pack by calling them. If you do a search in the forums you will find the number. My personal fav is the peach...but all of them are pretty good. They certainly break up the monotony of vanilla and chocolate

I have a couple glasses of wine every Thursday when I play pool. I was soo paranoid of how it would effect me so I hadn't for a while. For me...no difference then before If you want to have a drink, my suggestion would be for the first couple times you do have a drink, either be home, or out with a driver so that if you get really buzzed you do not have to drive

I would suggest doing your own researching online, no just here and not just what your Nut/Dr tells you...what are the differences between collagen vs whey protein.

What's the longest period of time you were "stalled" ?
Christine99 replied to Susan66's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been about the same since Nov 21st Dont stress the stalls...its your body adjusting as long as you are exercising and eating right the weight will come off! -
I read about these here on the forum and was soo excited...started drinking them (a little bit in Water like an enhancer) My NUT said they are garbage...its collagen Protein, not easily digested and we would only be absorbing a fraction. Not worth it and I havent used them since I have at least 6 of them I should bring back to Vitamin shoppe

Do you use tools like My Fitness Pal, Fitbit, etc?
Christine99 replied to Balance's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I use the "S Health" app on my phone faithfully...I track my exercise activity and every meal faithfully. It keeps me honest and I can assure that I am getting at least 75g of Protein a day -
