Being Banded tommorrow!



Recommended Posts

Hi,

Haven't posted in a long time. Got discouraged after the insurance company tried to tell me the doctor sent in someone else's paper work & I would have to wait another 6 - 8 weeks for approval.

After many hurdles & insurance difficulty I am finally having surgery tomorrow. I can say that I am quite nervous & excited at the same time.

I have just suffered through the liquid pre op diet. Never want to do that again.

I have lost a total of 52 lbs. Since I started my journey.

For someone not in the process it is hard for them to understand. The family is happy that I have lost so much weight but when I went to see them they couldn't even recognize that I had lost the weight!

But I am looking forward to seeing the difference at Christmas time.

I wish everyone else good luck on their surgeries. & hope that everyone else has an easier insurance time than I did.

I just wish I wasn't so nervous.

      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.
