LuckyStar 24 Posted July 27, 2015 I just started today or I would love to help. What exactly are you struggling with? I am struggling a bit with the second week diet plan (two-shakes, one meal). There are days where I'm eating more than others, as in drinking a shake and eating shortly thereafter -- then later having a regular meal (the "one" meal) for the day. Any advice or suggestions?

LuckyStar 24 Posted July 28, 2015 I'm curious did everyone have to do the 6 month nutrition program ? Prior to surgery ? I am currently starting the long process and August 5 I meet my surgeon I did not have the 6 month requirement, this is mostly for insurance purposes, as it is required for some insurance plans.

kathy2208 40 Posted July 28, 2015 Wow yeah my insurance requires the 6 month since i didn't go to weight watchers or a nutritionist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TXTinana 269 Posted July 28, 2015 Yeah insurance is what usually requires the 6 month program. As I am self-pay I was not required to complete a 6 month program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
