I have blue shield, and go figure I got food poisoning before my appointment and it put me at 38.7 BMI. I had to do a 6 month diet program. I am on month 4 now. it's not bad. They just tell me not to get below 35 BMI and to stay as high as possible. I did the psych, and the sleep apnea test and I have slight sleep apnea, but not enough for them to approve me. so I am just going to keep going to the monthly appointments for the next few months. it's gone by faster than I have expected.

I went to my seminar and love it!! The information was very interesting! Plus I spoke to the person who is in change of the insurance documents and she said not to worry because since they took my height before my primary they can submit the one they had and then with that I will be at BMI of 40 so she said she will check my policy and see what other thing my insurance requirements are so we can move on! She said by a policy that she can think of from another patient with the same insurance she said they want 3 months of weight management and so I will just need this month and February so HOPEFULLY by March I will have a date?!?! Crossing fingers and toes!! Lol!

Just horrible Migraines, multiple miscarriages, pcos. I have fought with blue shield for this, so I figure if they want 6 month nutritional, I'll give it to them. My last one should be March, so I am hoping to have surgery in April...praying praying praying for it anyways!!!

      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.
