I haven't gone through that, but as long as you don't miss a month, you won't have to start over. The requirement, if you have to do six months, is usually "six consecutive months within the last year" or "... within the last two years".

I was wondering about this too. Although the 6 month pre-op diet should be accepted by any insurance as long as you have it documented.

My concern would be if there was a waiting period for elective surgery.

More insurances are getting away from the six-month nutrition visits. Mine, Blue Shield of California, dropped the requirement a week or so after I finished all of my requirements.

Thanks for your input!

This is just a very stressful time for me. Worrying about not getting approved and this and that. I may not even have to change plans. I just over analyze everything. It's hard when you want something so bad and you're scared its gonna fall through. :(

I have blue cross blue shield of KY and as of right now, it's still a requirement for me.

      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.
