I'm postponing mine I just found out that my ins only pays 50% of the 16,000 dollar surgery. So my out of pocket would be 8000 and they want 4000 before they do surgery. Than make payments for the rest. So depressed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chloe0628 4 Posted June 15, 2015 Hi NewMe- I'm feeling pretty good! Glad that I am past the liquid stages and am on puréed / but I am not doing baby food - still lots of Protein Shakes and i do refried Beans w a little cheese and taco sauce.

NikkiDoc 312 Posted June 17, 2015 I live in Pottstown, PA but work in North Wilmington near the mall. So I could be an honorary DE support person. I sleeved back in the beginning of February so am a bit ahead of you guys. NewMe- I am sorry to hear that you have to postpone your surgery. Have you checked with your insurance yourself about how much they will pay? It almost sounds like your surgeon/facility is either non-network or not a Centers of Excellence under your insurance. They may pay more if you go to a different facility/doctor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NikkiDoc 312 Posted June 24, 2015 I bought Matrix vanilla and was allowed to add frozen no sugar added peaches or mangos. Berries would come later. I also used DaVinci SF syrups such as caramel, brown sugar/cinnamon, gingerbread, Peanut Butter They have other such as raspberry. You can add Peanut Butter to the chocolate or vanilla shakes. There is PB2 which is powdered peanut butter. I just used real peanut butter. I did eat some creamed Soups and strained the chunks out. I loved the broth from wonton Soup.< /p> I would suggest ordering samples of Matrix or Nectars. I got mine from MyBaratricPantry. They have a huge variety. I drank shakes for a few months after the full liquid phase to make sure I was getting Protein. I use them less now that I am 5 months out from surgery. It is nice to have the shakes available for awhile. I way prefered the Matrix or Nectars to the pre-made. The full liquid phase will pass soon enough. You will get throught it.
