Here is the latest I saw. It isnt the total bill and it is for surgery only. Now I am not paying for fills or visits, no idea how it all works (as far as paying).

I wont know more until after the holidays when I can call and find out what everything is.

I am totally shocked. I paid 7000.00 period. Amazing doctor and he also takes insurance.

That is amazing!!!! How in the heck do you get in 80-100 grams of Protein on 900 cals a day? Please let us know what you are eating! Congrats!

You can do it w/ fish - Sole is my favorite. Packed in protein low on calories. And you only eat protein not anything else no carbs. Or not too many carbs ie less than 50 grams.

Hello everyone! Just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year if I don't get back on here before then. I also lost 4 more lbs last week which really shocked me because I didn't get to exercise like I usually do because I was out of town. I also had wine and a little bit of Pastel de tres leches which is a very moist cake and I also had Tamales, but I guess I didn't eat quite as much as I thought. So I am 2 lbs away from Onderland and I still can't believe that 71 lbs is gone and it has only been 5 months since I started the pre-op diet and 4 months since surgery. It also snowed today and it was very pretty. Well getting ready for bed, waiting for hubby in my new nightie I bought for Christmas. It's amazing the confidence I have gained even though I know I still have 60 or so more lbs to go. That is my new year's resolution, to get to goal or at least past 160 which I haven't weighed since I was about 14 or 15. Happy New Year!;)

Hi, everyone. It's been a while since I posted here, but I wanted to check in. Looks like you all are doing great.

I was excited this morning when I weighed in...I've lost 50 lbs! Getting close to the halfway mark to goal. I'm very happy with that amount.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
