Thank u all for sharing your experiences, I have incorporated a workout something I wasn't doing at first, the 1st 2 days I went up 3 lbs but I eventually lost them, I eat healthy, consume Protein, and take my Vitamins. Im having a little problem getting the recommended amount of Water in tho.... U all are right I haven't really experienced hair loss and I don't want saggy skin so I am content as long as the scale continues to go down!!!!

I have just finished my first full day of my Clear liquids diet which I have 13 more days to complete ???? I am extremely proud of myself for staying strong and not giving in to temptation...I keep thinking about my prize at the end of the finish line!How did you guys feel, did you find the pre- op diet a breeze or fairly difficult to handle and/or stick with? What advice could you offer to get me through the next 2 weeks?!

How did you all handle the liquid diet whether it was for 1 week or 2 weeks, I'm extremely nervous and I don't think negatively but reality is this will be very hard to endure for two full weeks?

Thanks for responding, its just very frustrating especially. When there is no payment plansI have seen quite a few policies that have $500-$1500 co pays for bariatric surgery. I don't have a copay but I have a $1600 deductible for the year. I ended up starting the process in March so I know I can have the surgery this year and my deductible should be met by the time I have it. It really depends on where your coworkers were at in the year or even if they have the same policy. I know some employers offer a low and high deductible option.

I have medical mutual insurance through my state employer. I know quite a few employees that have went through the surgery and none of them recall paying a deductible or a rather large deductible before pre-op. I was told by my advocate that I will need to pay $1500 before my pre admission, I have been working doubles like crazy to come up with this money before surgery in July did anyone else have this issue?

I have tried different Vitamins "horse pills", flinstone, and Gummy. They all made me sick. I did research and found out about Centrum liquid Multivitamin and I love it besides the nasty aftertaste but I drink Water after

I agree with everyone else premier Protein is 1 of the best I have tried, no after taste which was my biggest issue and 1 of the only shakes I have seen to offer 30g Protein per shake!!!!!
