Just got approved today by my insurance. Now I am super scared. Please tell me in your opinion that I am doing the right thing or not.

Congratulations on your approval!

Deciding to move forward with surgery is a personal decision. Surgery might not be for everyone. Ask questions, gather all your information - the good and the bad -, know the risks and the rewards and be confident in whatever you choose. Take your time deciding. You got over a big hurdle, approval.

For me, it was the best thing I have ever done for myself. I am thankful every day to have this tool to aid me on my journey to a healthier me.

I just got approved today as well and I'm super excited. I don't have an ounce of fear. I did a lot of research so I know what I'm getting into. Plus I try not to live in fear

You'll be fine...I was freaking out too all the way until I saw my surgeons smiling face. Then I was all geared up and ready to go. I was out for like 45 minutes and up in my room in 2hrs. Staring at my husband and family as they asked me a gazillion times if I was alright. Lol. Of course I was and you will be too. :) see ya on the post op side of this journey ! Mine was 10/10/13 if you're wondering. I'm about 12 days post op.

      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.
