Recommended Posts

I got them both today!!! I was so nervous, but approval only took a week, thank goodness! Now I just have to find a way to keep myself occupied until my February 20th surgery date!

I'm so excited!

Did you have to wait 6 months initially?

I did have to do the 6 month supervised diet, yes. And actually, it's been several months longer than that. I started the process about 10 months ago. I was living on the other side of the state, and after 4 months I got a new job and had to move. With the insurance switch, etc, I ended up having to skip a month, which meant I had to start all over!

It seems like I've been doing this forever, but at the same time it's gone quickly.

      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.
