Surgery Date



Recommended Posts

I have a surgery date of August 23rd, hopefully all will go well on the financing portion. The majority will be covered by insurance that will pay for the Hernia Repair and I have to take care of the lap band portion. True Results is supposed to let me finance that portion at $266.42 for two years, if not then I may have to delay until January and up my FSA. Fingers crossed!

It truly is, the weight has dominated too much of my life. I'm ready to move on to new things and not always have this wearing on me. Tired of the diet roller coaster, I've gone from my highest of 217 and managed to get myself down to 156 only to go back up to 195! All the while running at least 3-4 times per week. I finished two half marathons last year and gained weight while training for them! My problem is food and Portion Control, I need help getting a handle on it.

I truly believe this is my chance and I'm taking it, taking back my life!

In Sept I will have Health plus Medicare Advantage insurance. I found a surgeon that excepts it. Im going to a lap band seminar in Sept. Hoping I dont get denied. My insurance will pay 80% and I pay 20%. I also feel its my last chance. Has anyone else had this insurance?

All is set with my surgery and my portion will definitely be financed through True Results, now to start getting ready for my surgery date and following the pre-surgery diet to the letter. I want this to be a success story. :) I feel like August 23rd will be my second birthday, a new beginning!!

      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.
