201 Class Scheduled Surgery Date has to be close! ( Phx, AZ)



Recommended Posts

SO I didn't receive a response back from my surgeon's office for three weeks after having the psych clearance over. Finally was able to call them today and my advocate said she didn't have paperwork from my primary care, no recommendation letter and none of the last 6 years of medical records... I told her she better check again because I sent her a PDF file from the MTF's I've been to with 6 years of weight issues documented and my primary care sent in the referral. I know I won't get a letter of rec from him because he's a jerk and thinks I'm overweight because I overeat at every meal. Honestly, he's horrendous but with my insurance, I don't have time to change providers and wait another 3 months...advocate found the email of my medical records, said she'd read through them (277pages plus) and that I don't need pulmonary or cardiac clearance 1f642.png:) my 201 class, the class right before surgery, is scheduled for Tuesday the 7th 1f642.png:)so excited it's getting closer! I also just found out I have insurance until at least September! 1f642.png:) woohoo! I thought that would run out on April 30! Anyone else have to go through something similar at Bridges Center in phoenix, Az?

      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.
