Congratulations!!!

Right - I didn't mean to infer that you couldn't lose weight pre-op - in fact you will be required to do so. I just meant you shouldn't lose weight before your first visit with the MD where your BMI will be determined. Sorry for the confusion.

I don't have any experience with your ins co, but at an informational meeting I went to prior to committing to this, I was advised NOT to try to lose ANY weight prior to my first weigh in with the MD. HTH

Thanks for clearing that up, kjsweigart; and much luck to you, Khaled.

I have a question about this: is this a 1 pound weight gain over-all; or any 1# weight gain at any time during the trial?

In other words, say I started at 100# and ended up at 99#, but during 1 month I went up to 101# - would this be a disqualifier? Or is the net loss at 99# the magic number? Hope I have made myself clear....

Correct. It is a 3 month or six month program depending on doctor. Mine was 3 months.

I finished the three month supervised diet, unfortunately I gained one pound. Would this little gain get me denied ?

Thank you!

Atta girl Bandista - keep up the good work. That's great!

food commercials should be against the law!!! LOL

Good Luck to you.

Thanks to both of you for clearing up the whey issue!

What is it about the Isopure and hydrolyzed whey Protein that is objectionable? Trying to learn all I can here before surgery. Thanks!

Glad to hear you're on the right track!

You're in my thoughts for a speedy recovery! I'm so sorry for what you're going thru.

Hope I learn to like it!

Oh - I would love it if I developed a taste for fish post op. I've tried to eat fish for years but can't get past the smell! It's on my list to try when the time is right.

I think cheesecake is the grossest thing in the world now, I can't stand the taste. I used to love it. I hated fish now I crave it. I used to love hot food and can't take it anymore. I can't drink hot coffee but cold coffee is great. I don't like steak too much anymore. I despise Burger King and that used to be my go to.

Glad to hear you're on the mend, Zumba. Sending good wishes your way.

TammyRN - can you give us an update on how you're doing? We care. Hope all is well.

Thanks, Blashlee.

Thanks, Amazon - that's a relief!

Anyone have this particular ins? Could you tell us how it went for you? Did you have to wait long for approval after submitting all your info?

TIA

Yikes! I hope this is a mistake.

wishing you peaceful thoughts and warm wishes along with sending my prayers.

So the powder you add to something, right Blashlee?

Thanks

BOO! for the wait!

Never realized it might take that long....

Where/how do you purchase samples?

I asked the question on Amazon.com, but haven't rec'd an answer yet.
