Sorry Kmoore... I got the posts confused I actually meant brittanykins but I still want to add you as a friend if that is ok.

Brittanykins... how was your surgery with Dr. Pirello?

I actually haven't had my surgery yet. I've still got 3 months to spend with the nutritionist before I can get my insurance approval. My meetings with Dr. Pirrello have all gone well so far though.

Hello everyone I'm not in Charlotte but I am in NC....Raleigh. My surgery is scheduled for November 19. Dr Peter Ng at Rex's hospital. I'm nervous too and excited at the same time.

Hey shelleerenee! I'm in Raleigh, too! I was actually sleeved in CLT, though, because I was self-pay so I couldn't afford Rex or Duke. I hope all goes well for you. Have you joined any of the meetup.com WLS support groups? I'm attending my first one this Saturday.

I am meeting with the nutritionist at the end of the month to get started.. How has it been with the nutritionist so far?

Dr Kuwada is doing my surgery as well. I am a little worried because my insurance was approved last week and he doesn't have any dates for surgery available on his calendar. Fingers crossed

I am proud to announce that Dr Kuwada found room for me!!! I am scheduled for Nov. 19th! liquid diet starts Monday! Yaaaayyyyy!!!!

      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.
