Hi everyone this is my first post but I have been reading everyone's information and feel like I know some of you:biggrin2:. Anyway, I started this process a month ago (May 21 I think) and had my papers submitted to insurance on Thursday (June 26) and OMG I just received my call from the insurance (Anthem BC/BS) and the doctors back to back. I am soooo stoked, I can't believe how fast it was. I was thinking at least six months or so. Just wanted to let everyone know the good news..............Appt. with Doc on the 17th to set a surgery date.......:)

      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.
