Howdy,

Have insurance with Cigna and completed my 6 month supervised diet. The surgeons office submitted my paperwork and I was declined.

Reason: No psychiatric eval. or nutrionist visit.

So, my girlfriend had her cosmetology test yesterday in Little Rock and I set my appts. up then so we could get it all done at once.

Good news....contrary to what my ex-wifes have said, I am not crazy ;)

She did tell me after talking with me for awhile that she thought I was very committed to getting this done. I agree :devil_smile:

After that I met the nutritionist. And you would never believe where.....

Famous Dave's restaurant. Lol. A friend of mine called while I was meeting her, and he said "Isn't that like attending an AA meeting at a liquor store?" She just laughed.

Anyway, those two things will be submitted and hopefully I will hear back in a week or so.

Just wanted to tell someone, because I am happy!

Michael

Oh yeah, and the nutritionist told me I look remarkably like Bill Engvall the comedian. I asked her if she smoked her Breakfast ;)

Hang in there an it will finally happen. It took me 18 months to finally get everything in place and get my band. I am so happy. I have lost a total of 49.8 pounds and feel great.

You will get there.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
