1st consult update



Recommended Posts

well I had my 1st consult on friday and it went well. My surgeon will be Dr.Phelps @ Genesis Bariatric Center in Davenport Iowa. Im a very healthy obese person..lol but Ido need a sleep study. According to my answers I scored a 12!! Most people that fall between 8-10 need sleep study and Im a 12...haha Its just that IDONT sleep much at all, more like insomnia I think?

Other then that it went well, in 2 wks in the group dietician..then will have a one on one.

Seems surreal that Ive started the whole process, but am very excited! :biggrin:

      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.
