Newbie - Just Starting Out



Recommended Posts

Hello, my name is Khloé and I'm new here. I'm having my consultation appointment with Dr. Nick Nicholson on Friday (February 1st, 2013) and am SOOOO excited! I've gone through the pre-op process before with another surgeon, only to lose my insurance and not end up with my surgery. I'm praying like crazy that this time I will get my surgery! The last surgeon I had kept trying to force me into having the DS, which is a fabulous surgery, but the malabsorbtion is super gnarly and not something that I want.

Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm so happy to start this journey, and am hoping and praying the next 6 months fly by!

Hi Khloe! I'm new to this too. My first surgeon consult is not until 2/19 and with all of the requirements that my insurance requires, my surgery probabaly won't be until July or August. I can't wait!

Good luck with your appointment

      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.
