Insurance approval!!



Recommended Posts

Friday I rec'd my approval letter from my insurance company!! I was so excited I cried, then I called my sister and she cried also (after calling me a sap)

So....Now what?? When will I start the liquid diet? I thought I had all the info I needed untill I got that letter and all of a sudden my brain blanked out all known info. HAHA :guess

Any way, I'm supposed to call my surgeon's office ( Dr. Cribbins) Monday to get a surg date. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight....excitement reigns supreme!!

Hi guys!!

I have my surg scheduled May 6th....I'm a nervous wreck!!! I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I have been going through my closet this week trying to find any of my "skinny" clothes (for me that is only a size 18 or 20) so I will have a couple of things to wear, Not much luck in that department though..I've been a size 22 for about 9 years and had gotten rid of most of my old clothes, so I guess I'll be hitting the thrift stores.. anybody know a good one in the Garland, Richardson Plano area??

Debby,

I'm in north Texas, Sachse actually which is a suburb of Dallas. Where are you?

Now we can support each other through this...

Where did you get your weight tracking thing that is with your signature??? I need to get one of those!! So I can see ho much I've lost. I have also decided to get a box of large paperclips, for every pound I loose I add 1 to the chain untill I have enough to hang in the bedroom... Just something visual for me to see the numbers...

Hi Christine,

Congrats on getting approved. I am still waiting. My daughter lives in Wylie and goes to church in Sachse so I come through there almost every week. Good luck on your surgery. Where are you having it?

Hey I like the paper clip thing! Very creative.

The ticker on the bottom of the posts. I'm no expert but go to the web site. Just click on one. Make it and Copy it, then paste is on your signature. I don't know how to change it except to do it again.

I'm getting excited! I needed to buy clothes for vacation to Disney the week before and I bought very sparingly because I hopefully won't need this size for long. My goal to to have a summer without the W on my size 18's (or 16's).

Who came up with that W system. It sucks emotionally.

Good luck on the waiting

      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.
