  1. Yes they gave me a general plan. I know what kind of vitamins I need to take also. My point really is that there are so many brands. Is one better than the other. Is the value better with a certain brand than the other ?
  2. And I just realized I posted this in post op instead of pre op. Lol. Sorry!
  3. I have read over a lot of posts on here and am so confused about what I need to start buying for my surgery. I also have the 14 days of liquid diet before surgery. 3 shakes a day and 1 meal no more than 350 calories. I have no clue what to buy. Some people say don't mix a shake in the blender it makes it to foamy. How do you mix it ? There are tons of vitamins out there, how do I know if it had the right amount of nutrients I need ? How many different kinds of Shake favors do I start with ? Is it mixed with water or milk ? I feel lost and haven't even started yet.
  4. I had to send in a psychiatric evaluation, proof of attending nutrition class, exercise evaluation along with any medical conditions related to my weight. Was sent in on a Monday had a approval by Wednesday. I have bluecare (Tenncare).
  5. July 20th here. I am so nervous ????
  6. I am beyond excited and nervous for this new journey in my life but boy am I ready. No one in my family understands how happy I was to get that phone call today, it's like I've won the lottery. I still have to work the time off with my job so I don't have the date yet but within the next 30 days I hope :-). Happy in Tennessee...
