  1. have you tried googling to find their website or a distributor, that is what I normally do. Their website says it is sold at Big lots and Publix for my area, Atlanta, GA. http://www.bobsredmill.com/dealer_locator.php
  2. I'm in Buford, have the psych appointment on the 11th, and then the surgeon will tell me whats next, I think after that, we start getting down to the nitty gritty to start gettting ready to submit to insurance. Where are y'all getting the surgery done.
  3. If I make it tbrough all the hoops and approved then Dr Nguyen at North Georgia will do the procedure robotically. Anybody else?
  4. Awos, I am curious, I have Humana and my info says you have to have failed with medically supervised weight loss. Was that a requirement for you, and did that apply. I have never had medically supervised weight loss until I was diagnosed with diabetes In March and since then I have lost 40 pounds so cant call that unsuccessful. My family and friends all keep saying, if I can lose 40 I should keep going and not have surgery, this drives me nuts.
  5. 92 grams of protein, WOW, I have now found another advantage to being 4'11". I will only require around 64 grams per my NUT.
  6. Please forward me that list, ddunn922@yahoo.com. Thanks
  7. The doctor says a week, I am planning for two hopefully but self employed, if I am not working I am not making money, pray I don't need a third, but if so I will survive.
  8. I tend to be more constipated unless I am having a problem. I can take a break if emergency, but I really try not to. Also a bathroom could be15 minutes away. I just was not sure on the smoothie/pureed stage how loose your bowels would be.
  9. My first topic, sorry such a yucky one. I have a strange job, I am an investigator and work in my car, doing surveillance 8 hour shifts. I have meals and urination covered, been doing this many years. But I am worried about my bowels and whether I will need Depends, which I really dont want to resort too. Any thoughts?

    I also have Humana POS, but I still have a few hoops to jump through before they submit to insurance. How long have you been working on this, also curious what state. I am in Georgia. I will be watching to see what happens with you now. LOL.
  11. Who is your surgeon? Best of luck to you.
  12. I am from Buford, going for my second visit with Dr Nguyen and plan to do the surgery at NE GA medical center.
