Told NOT to lose any more weight pre op



Recommended Posts

I had a NUT appt today. I lost 7 lbs on vacation. From 273 to 266. Since I do not have any thing like high blood pressure or apena or diabetes if my BMI goes under 40 I am out of the running for surgery. How do you like that?

@@Michelle Tarver I was the same way. I had to gain 8 lbs to qualify and keep it the whole 3 months. I know, ridiculous!

My doctor requires a 10 day liquid diet and said if I didn't loose some weight on it or gained he wouldn't do surgery cause my liver wouldn't be shrunk any. Guess each doctor different

      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.

      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.
