Any February Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

I received my surgery date yesterday of 02/21/2013. My twin sister is also having the surgery on 02/07/2013. We are excited and nervous at the same time. We are having the surgery by the same doctor. We only have to do one day liquid diet the day before surgery. Anybody have any advice for us leading up to the surgery and what to expect right after the surgery.

My Dr. set my surgery date for Feb. 19th, he's sending in for approval. Hoping to know in a couple weeks if approved. I'm trying to think positive but things don't usually go easy or my way with things like this, especially because the Nurse Manager for UHC stated that I need to do 6 month Dr. supervised diet, however in all the info the Dr's office got from UHC says nothing about it. So he's going to submit and we'll see. At least I have everything else done and am ready if I have to do the 6month at least I've already got 3 months done. Keep fingers crossed for me please :}

      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.
