The last hoop has been jumped!



Recommended Posts

I have been on the waiting list for my sleeve surgery singe November 2014. I started going through the pre-op requirements last March (and really hard for the last 4 months), and am so pleased to say that today, I jumped through the last hoop before getting my surgery date! I made it through the 2 week liquid diet trial, I made it through the nutrition counselling, I made it through all the paperwork, and today had two scopes done. As of today with the completion of the scopes (and no biopsies needed) I am officially GREEN LIGHTED to be booked! His office will be contacting me, and then I will get my date. I am so excited to get my date! This is really going to happen. I can't wait to be on the other side, taking control of my life with my new tool.

Sorry to make a new thread, but I just need to Celebrate coming this far :) I'm in Canada, and was told to expect a 4-7 year wait. Being this close in just a year and a half is remarkable, and I am just so thrilled!

      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.
