Coming out of lurk mode



Recommended Posts

I've been lurking on this site for a couple of months now and have found it to be one of the most informative that I've found on the net. I've had my first consultation with my surgeon and I'm scheduled to meet with the nutritionist on Jan. 16. My PCP is on board with my plans and was pleased to hear that I'm considering the lap band. I still have to schedule my psych appointment and then I guess all that will be left is waiting on the insurance company.

Welcome to the board. After noticing that you are from Texas, I looked at your profile. I am a teacher also. I teach 1st grade. In fact there are several of us around here. We have learned what is easier to eat during that very short 30 minutes that we get so holler if you have any questions and good luck.

Thanks for the warm welcomes. This adventure seems to be getting closer each day. I'm scheduled to see the nutritionist Monday, Jan.16, and I've been precertified by insurance to see the psychologist for that evaluation. Now all I need is a date to see him.

Good luck on your journey. I have also been a lurker and have been viewing the boards for several weeks. My insurance was initially filed on 12/19, but I guess the holidays caused a back log because they had to refile on 01/05... two weeks lost - gurrrrr!

Oh well... what can you do. I hope we can both be happy banders soon.

      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.
