No required weight loss for my insurance, but I was also given a six month dietician requirement.

I'm another one who is glad about the six months. I've learned so much and have had time to practice new methods and habits.

I am almost finished with my 3rd of 6 month diet, it has been moving fast, I am losing about 4 pounds a month. feeling pretty good, I am finally getting used to eating at least 5 times a day! But I guess that is the norm after the surgery! Good Luck in the future!

I don't have a 6 month supervised requirement through my insurance. I just need to do the psych eval and nutrition eval. Then everything gets submitted for approval with insurance. Once approved, then I do the blood work and ekg and other tests needed for the doctor. I have BCBS of MA. They are great!

That is really quick and a lot less tests. Even though when I started I thought 6 months would never get here it really is going by fast.

I am on a 6 Month supervised diet to qualify for my surgery. Already have done a few support groups and 2 dietician visits. One more dietician visit then 2 with my primary provider, plus my psych eval and finally can meet with a surgeon!

I have United for insurance and when they first told me six months, I was discouraged but it's passing very quickly! I'm on target to meet with my surgeon in August.

I have to drop 8 pounds to qualify to move forward as a requirement as well.

Anyone else looking at a similar timeline or better yet, in Maine?

I am also a little more then halfway through as I have my fourth appointment in 12 days -I literally have a countdown app on my phone lol- when I found out about the 6 month diet I was so upset i figured I can do it myself in the time so I didn't even start. I wish I started sooner cause I'd probably be getting my surgery already. It is going by super quick though :)

      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.
