Guys, I am a skeptic, but I decided to try to get my pre op and post op Protein Shakes and Vitamins covered by my insurance through insurenutrition.com and guess what??? I was approved and received my first shipment today! 4 cases of 18 Premier Protein shakes and a month's supply of liquid vitamins!!! No copay, no shipping & handling! Freeeeeee They will continue to deliver once a month during my prescription period. (Must renew with your surgeon every 7 months!) :)

I went there just to see if I'm eligible, which I haven't found out yet. Now I just got an email that they are sending a prescription to my Dr to be signed. WTF , I didn't sign up for anything, they don't even know my dosages. I do not like this.

The doctor's authorization will tell them your requirements. Just hang in there and go through the process. :)

Just got mine the other day, I want to share with those who get denied not to worry I was denied and the rep told me they keep your info on file and run it every month for approval, and I guess they do because I got an email saying I was now approved and liquid vitamins and scar cream and four cases of shakes were delivered, my only problem is they sent all chocolate so they ask what I would like for the following month so I chose strawberry and vanilla...for me vanilla is more versatile with fruit and sugar free syrups....good luck all and remember to give them your insurance prescription plan info....xo

Ok I probably gave them the wrong info then. My prescription card is different than my insurance card.

They called me. The prescription is required so they can tell your insurance what the doctor is prescribing and see if they will cover it.

Oh ok. I misunderstood then. You think they'd explain that. Thanks :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
