    How Much Do/Did You Know About Nutrition?

    I took food and nutrition classes in high school along with cooking classes so I knew most of what I've been re learning lately but what I am learning new these days is how toxic sugar is and I never knew before becoming a diabetic how messed up the sugar lobby really is

  11. i have united health care caremark and medicaid dont know if your state medicaid allows for bariatric surgery every state is diffrent but in Maryland they do as long as you meet the criteria also united healthcare for me required that i be insured with them for a year before they would cover surgery just as a heads up

    Aetna and Deductible?

    this is the reason i am glad i have two insurances i have private insurance through my dads employer and state insurance that will foot the bill for what ever isnt covered under the private insurance. most of the time i have zero copays and pay nothing for prescriptions its been a great year considering one of my meds before i meet my deductible is around 150 a month

    gnc membership its so freaking worth it guys

    I just got the 100% whey chocolate supreme from there and I love it. It's a little thick but 1.5 hours after my first shake and still not hungry
  23. so i was looking to introduce protein shakes into my diet before my pre-op liquid phase because the nut wants me to get 60-80 grams a day and i went to the gnc website today and looked into a membership and its 15 bucks for the whole year one that is amazing because not only do they give you half off on whey protein but on like vitamins and suplaments and all sorts of good stuff. so i also ordered a tub of 100% whey protein in chocolate 2 pounds for 24 dollars yay
