  4. Hello all, I am new to this site and am learning a lot set to have surgery next month. I wanted to get some clarification on the Proteins drink. I just saw that you posted the more Protein it is better and less calories. Does that apply to the total fat or over all calories. I am still learning and I want to know what to look for when shopping. I did see Isoplus, Lean body and muscle milk. What would be the best protein to but as well as ready to drink ones? Thxs for your answers

  15. Ok thank you, I am really to start my new journey. Because I am so tried of being over weight
  16. Does anyone have BCBS of Tx that was approve for the surgery. How long did it take to get your approval? My paperwork was submitted by my doctor office and I was told that it can take anywhere from one week to 30 days.
  17. Hi Patti, Since you are already with the company, I would inform them of a surgical procedure that you would have to do for your health. You don't have to go into details. Meaning of doing this is to let them know ahead of time and when the date comes they will not get up set because you are taking maybe a week off. You want to be professional about it )
  18. I am so happy for you Congrats and looking forward in hearing from you when it is done
  19. Sorry that was supposed to be smiley faces lol but I am happy for you and can't wait until its my turn
  20. Congrats to you, I am so happy for you ????????
  21. Hello my name is Tina, and I am new here also. I had my appointment with the surgeon and decided to do the sleeve. At first I wanted the band and reading all the complications that people was having and also the psych doctor also stated to go with the sleeve because he knew a doctor who had it done and changed to the sleeve. My paper work was submitted to the insurance company so just waiting for an approval
  22. Not worrying if you can fit in your clothes
