  1. Did you have surgery. I haven't heard from you since the nite before you were to report. If so when and how are you doing?
  2. I have BCBS FEP and I love it. I was approved within days and only had to pay about $500 total out of pocket. That was trully my NSV. Congrats and many blessings to you.
  3. YAYYYY HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY TEARS. CONGRATS!!!!!
  4. With the soup it can be to hot. U need to make the temp less hot and that will stop the curdle. Use a themometer. I heat fat free chicken broth check temp then add powder.
  5. I only like the strawberry sorbet with water. The chocolate/vanilla I mix with unsweetened almond milk because when mixed with water it becomes to frothy. chicken soup taste better with fat free chicken broth. Ouse unflavored in my smoothie mix. powder, yogurt, frozen fruit,ice and diet v8 splash
  6. Wow my insurance paid all but about $500.00. Yes call and ask to speak with DeeDee. She is the surgery coordinator and is awesome with everything. If she is busy say asked to be transferred to her vmail. She will be able to answer all your questions. That way you can see if Baptist is less expensive.
  7. I was told to take 28mg of zinc daily along with Biotin.
  8. I had to do my EGD at CMMC only because at that time I chose it. I knew Dr. Cummins was leaving River Oaks so I didn't mind. I did some prep blood at river oaks. I did my ABG and PFT at work, my PCP did my EKG and Chest X-ray in his office. Yes I was the 1st one at Baptist and they did so well. You have that option to go there. When is your surgery date?
  9. My insurance required me to pay the hospital stay. It was $150. per nights and I stayed 2 nights. What is your insurance requiring?i had to pay it the day of surgery but I pad mine when I went to pre register.

  11. Sure her contact info is Dr. Erin Cummins, 601.973.1624 Baptist Nutrition and Bariatric Center located in the medical arts building. She is now using Baptist but I do know she has been going to River Oaks. She was at Transformations. I followed her to Baptist. I chose her for several reasons. I worked in a facility where she performed surgeries and I was happy with her success. I also wanted someone who had a star of excellence with bariatric surgery/patients. Are you working out anywhere. What are your stats? When are you scheduled? How long will you stay out from work?
  12. I don't know about fitclick I will have to look into that one.
