Thank you! Yes, I am slightly freaking out. After all the waiting I've done, to have it scheduled for so soon is someehat nerve-wracking.

I was actually coming on to see if you had any updates. Woo! We can roam the halls in our flashy hospital gowns together.

I am actually really excited to have a buddy in all of this. Congratulations on getting to the final stage. :)

Is your final nutrition class also this Wednesday?

@jessgn

Yes, it is! That is so awesome, we'll get to meet in person then! I'm excited too because I don't know anyone out there yet, met a few people at meetings but don't see them every time.

I saw you post on the fb page, I recognized your picture. I'm sending you a fb friend request!

I'm still waiting on approval as well. Today makes 2 weeks and it's still pending smh

Ugh. Frustrating. I called my insurance a bunch of times to check the status, you should call them and see where it's at.

Last Fall I was denied, but resubmitted my paperwork this past Winter. I did a live chat several times to let them know that I was serious about obtaining this surgery. Keep the pressure on.

That is great @jenzds75! I know how frustrating the wait is, and the anticipation, but once you get your date the time seems to fly by! I just had my surgery on 5/31, I'm on post-op day 4 now!

      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.
