I am going through Dr. Zeni in Livonia. I know many people who have gone with him and I have heard nothing but good things.

Yes. I did do the 6 months of doctor supervised weight loss. I also needed to have a dietitian evaluation, a psych evaluation, an EKG, and blood work for my insurance to accept me.

Now, since I have been approved I am on to an endoscopy, chest X-ray, and an ultrasound of my gallbladder. My surgery is set for June 11th!

Good luck all of you guys! I'm just starting, saw the surgeon for the first time yesterday so I'll probably be done in June or August, too many fun summer things to schedule around!

I'm in Kalamazoo, and it seems like nobody else here is from Kzoo. My surgeon will be Dr. Verseman at Borgess .

      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.
