    If you have to be cash pay now... they need to give you the cash pay price.... i havent heard of anyone paying more then 20,000 for surgery! I was self pay and i had a 1 night stay in the hospital and my total was $18,000.... 8,000 went to DR and 10,000 went to the hospital... they better work with you!!!

    I also was on a LOW calorie 7 day post op clear liquid diet... i was only allowed 59 calories a day... and i wasnt allowed unlimitied liquids... i had a diet to follow.... Only unlimited water... I also felt AWFUL!!!! I was sooooooooo weak!!! They let me move up to full liquids 1 day early... Im on my last day of FULL liquids... i have to say the FULL liquids were a little more filling... but i was still hungry all the time! Im hoping mushies are gonna be the thing that helps my hunger!!

    Naked Juice 38 grams of Protein

    MyMeshelle replied to MyMeshelle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

    The one i had today wasn't chocolate... it was a few different fruit flavors... It said PROTIEN accross the front so it caught my eye... yes they arent low in calories... and the bottle is 2 servings... with 20 grams of protein a serving... they fill me up tho... im still on a liquid diet for a few more days so i need the calories! But they sure do taste ALOT better then a protein shake!!

    I wanted to get my WLS done on my maternity leave... they only required i was 6 week out... my c-section was healing nice and fast! I lost all the weight i gained with the baby (30pnds) I was 100 pnds over weight prior to pregnancy and thats why they were ok with doing the WLS... I am not doing well on such little calories... my milk supply dried up completely!! Which i didnt expect to happen.... I am worried about going back to work next week... i feel very weak and sooooo grouchy!!
