I had my first consult last month around the 25th and it went well. so well i went ahead and started the process, They did insurance verification before hand so they had all that ready when I got there. I talked with my advocate and she answered any questions I had. They took , blood, did the EKG and physical exam. I also talked to the nutritionist. HAd my Psyc evaluation last wednesday and now I am going to schedule my EDG and that should be it. Hoping to have the surgery June 10th

Whoo hoo!

At my initail consult I met with a nurse for background health information, a nutritionist to know what to expect, and the surgeon who gave me all my options. I was then given a long list of "To Dos' that took three months to complete (psych, sleep study, labs, etc.) I am proof that this is possible!!

Good luck =)

      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...

        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.
