Anyone use this website? It claims to get your insurance company to pay for protien drinks for WLS patients. I am going to call my insurance company tomorrow and see what they say. I am not comfortable giving my insurance information out.

I just wanted it pre op. That's When I'll be having the shakes. But it was on here once that they only send the shakes once and it's all about their Vitamins after that.

I got mine today. 72 Protein Drinks. I bottle of chewable Multi Vitamins and an rx of scar cream. Did not pay anything. Insurance company covered. The only thing they did not cover was the Vitamin. But the company sent them to me as a courtesy and said they would sent them in each shipment every month. Happy.

      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.
