Surgery Plan In Place



Recommended Posts

I live 2.5 hours from my LB surgeon and I'm divorced so I had to find someone to take me to and from. Tonight, my parents volunteered to drive me down the day before (for pre-op consult), pay for two connecting hotel rooms for us all to spend the night, and maybe spend the night of surgery if I'm not up to a 2.5-hour car ride after surgery. My parents are awesome and it's so great to have such wonderful support. One more step toward my goal! I'm so excited!

That is awesome! Since my husband and I banded on same day, my in laws came to stay for the day. My fil went back home ( 1 1/2 hours) but on Friday am at 4:00 when I called my mo and sister to take me to ER. he allied in and drove back here to drive my husband up to the hospital and pick up my child! Then when I thought I was over the hump (but was not) my mil who had just gone home day before and doesn't drive often...showed back up to help again! My family has been a God send during this time for us! I'm happy you have that support....let them help you!

      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.
