Reeling Through Some Thoughts...



Recommended Posts

So I periodically skim through the topics and most of the time I can find something about what I'm wondering about. Well, I am getting closer to the end of my 6 month supervised diet. Which all in itself is ridiculous I have spent my whole life being overweight so let's tack on another 6 months right? I have 3 more weigh ins. My weight has always fluctuated to begin with so I have gained 5-10lbs since I have started which isn't huge because I'm on the lower side with my bmi. My bmi is around 37 I don't really have any co morbidities. I have had some high labs and borderline hypertension. I'm just hoping that if I am going to go through all this then they won't say in the end your not fat enough or not sick enough?! I guess when they say you are your own worst enemy it's so true! anyone else have these conflicting thoughts because they are on the lower bmi side and don't have any major health issues?

You should know your insurer's EXACT criteria for approval and whether you have met them. BMI, comorbidities, and expected results of supervised diet! Call them!

I know what their requirements are. What I'm saying is I'm worried that I'm not big enough or don't have enough health issues. I can't really lose a lot on the six month supervised diet because I'm already in the lower category.

      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.
