Three month diet? What does the diet consist of? I had a 4 month waiting period in which I had to complete stuff like 2 nutritional counseling appointments, psych eval, blood work, medical clearance, sleep study, 10 lb weight loss and a 2 week pre-op diet which consisted of 2 Protein Shakes and 1 meal of 3 - 4 oz of lean meat, 1 cup of veg, 1 cup of fruit (no dairy). The 2 week diet was the surgeon's requirement to shrink my liver for easier band placement (and helped me meet the 10 lb weight loss).

It's a diet that insurance makes you go through 3 months before the fact ... It determines whether they approve it or not. I have to write down everything I eat for three months and I have to write down behavior methods I've changed. Idk how to do it... It i have to change what I eat right away or do I simply go about my day and just write everything down ?

I think to be sure I would call the insurance coordinator at your Drs office.... they have no doubt been asked this before. Better to be safe than sorry.

I have a six month diet to complete. I was told to write everything that I eat down. I've been trying to stick to a 1200 calorie diet, 8-10 glasses of Water and some kind of exercise daily.

      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.
