Just got my date, Dec 10th!

Aside from waiting 2 more months, I think December is an awesome month to have it done. What a way to start the new year!

My date is also 3 weeks after my 45th birthday, so it will be a great birthday present to myself also. Perhaps I will go in and pay the hospital/surgeon fees on my birthday to make it my official present.

Haleylhs be careful with weightloss before. Ins are very different so yours may be nothing like mine. However I just saw my nut on Thursday and was told don't lose any weight until I'm approved because my ins requires 40+ bmi and I drop to 41. But again I don't know if you have any other medical conditions. Just thought I would fyi because I would have never thought about that. :-)

I'm good ☺ going a little nuts and wish time would fly. Have 2nd appt with surgeon this Friday psych on the 21st and 2nd nut on the 31st. Will set my tummy camera appt friday with surgeon and hopefully will be submitting to ins by the 2 week of nov. Cant loose any weight which is driving me nuts because I'm at my HW ever and have NO jeans that fit. And I have days to quit smoking. I have to stop in the next 2 days for sure I just don't know how. How's are the rest of dec sleeves doing?

      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.
