I'm in Cleveland and just starting the process. I met with the Surgeon at St Vincent and have started my 6 month supervised diet that my insurance company wants me to do. This just seems like its going to be forever now that I have made the decision to have the surgery.

I was a self pay so I didn't have to wait for anything. I think you just have to be really patient and avoid over eating because you know your time to eat less is coming so you trying to get it all in now (I guess they call it having a food funeral)....it will just screw you up psychologically after I know this because I did it and a few of my friends have as well.

Hey, I was just asking you about pre-ops at Cleve Clinic in another thread! Did you decide to go self pay? How did you get approved so fast??? :)

I am a very persistent person so I would call everyday to get a same day appt instead of waiting until my scheduled appt. Then when it went to my ins I called them constantly so I was able to go through all my spots in June it was submitted to ins July 5 and approved this past Monday. I asked for the soonest surgery appt and was told to start my liquids the next day.

      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.
