I must say I'm a little disappointed in the customer service of this site. I filled out my application 3weeks ago and have had to call them to "check" every step of the way, they first told me they were waiting on my dr to fax back the scripts, but my dr had done it on the 10th. Now they said it was still being processed. They told me three different times they would call me back, but don't. Today they said they'd call me tomorrow to let me know what's covered. Please don't get me wrong, if approved I will be soooo grateful,these Protein Shakes are pricey! Anyone else feel like they're getting the run around?

Sigh....YES but at the opposite end!

I keep trying to get them to STOP sending them to me! I use a different Protein shake now and it's worth it to me to pay the $$ bc I've never liked the Premiere Protein! I've asked them to stop twice and just got another delivery today!

Anyone in central to southern CA want some premiere Protein shakes????

I was approved on June 13th and I just got my first shipment Monday July 22, 2014. I am very please with Insure service. I have been purchasing premier shakes from SAMs and to save the $$ I am very excited and a very happy camper. I also received two big bottles of liquid

Multi Vitamins and a list of the Vitamins in the bottle. Once again I only have positive things to say.

I have so many shakes left and I am using varying kinds of shakes. I want them to stop sending me shakes. I didn't get a shipment in June but then I got one in July!

I honestly don't think they wait for a prescription from your doctor because I filled out the form. They sent me an email saying they sent the form to my doctor. Then a few days later they emailed me back saying the doc sent the prescription back and they would notify me if approved. Well I haven't even had my first appt with doctor so why would a doc fill out a perscription on a patient he's never seen. I think they just take your insurance info and see if they can get it approved and gov from there. Today they emailed me and said my ins does not cover it. So u think they just go directly to your ins company.

Hi everyone, I am speaking from my own experience. The company do contact your Dr. When I filled out the paper work I put the NP down because she is the one that do my fills (Lapband). I called my Dr office to follow up to make sure they did receive the paperwork from Insure. The receptionist inform me the paper work came in with the NP name listed and they had to contact Insure to resend paperwork with Doctor listed. To make a long story short .. I just got my second shipment with two bottles of liquid muliti Vitamins. I love the Premier Protein shakes . I receive 4 cases a month and each case contain 18 shakes...Saving me $$ because I was purchasing every two weeks at SAMs...... I hope this helps

Im waiting on 1st shipment. This would save me $100 a month! So worth the paperwork & email tag to get it done. I prefer premier chocolate and when needed I thin it down w milk so not as sweet. Good luck

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
