Not very good at waiting



Recommended Posts

My final appt and clearance was 04/04 so all info sent off to BCBS, hoping to hear back quick since we already verified coverage during my process, but over 2 weeks and Im still waiting for my call to give me my surgery date. Ugh ugh pouty face.

I wasn't either but I wished I had used my pre-surgery time more productively. For example, I see a therapist and I wished I had broached the discussion of the possibility that I would feel markedly worse after the procedure. I wish I had spent the time preparing for the mental difficulty. Instead, I spent the time thinking of the physical misery that I might encounter. In all irony, I had very little physical discomfort. My issues were all mental.

This is the first week that I am really starting to feel like the depression is lifting. Physically, I've been doing okay. I began exercising two weeks ago. I had surgery on March 12th.

Sorry about the depression, hopefully it keeps getting better for you. Was it something you struggled with before surgery or judt afterwards? How much weight have u lost so far ? Do you have the sleeve? Or gastric?

      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.
