I love Mexican food & have been sorta mourning the loss I'm about to experience, lol. My surgery is Wed 9/21/16 & I already have a can of refried beans figuring I could top w/ cheese or come up w/ some creation once I'm able to do pureed foods. I'm loving your recipe & plan to try it. Thank you so much!

Please don't touch Slim Fast. I can't imagine a nutritionist or your doctor thinking those are even close to being acceptable...full of carbs, sugar & salt. Premier brand & Oh Yeah brands are great & taste very good. I wish you luck through Sent from my SCH-S968C using the BariatricPal App

I found the "Crush" brand of Water flavors but I found some tasted too sweet even though they are sugar-free. I mix 1 grape powder to 3-4 bottles of water, 1 strawberry between 3 bottles & the pineapple flavor between 2 bottles of water. Orange flavor is also 3 bottles of water. I just played around and added more water till I found the right concentration/dilution ratio for me. Sent from my SCH-S968C using the BariatricPal App

When the office submits your prior auth request, they have to give a tentative surgery date. The office will call the insurance co back to update the prior auth w/ the correct surgery date. Prior auths can take a while for gastric surgery. Also, don't ever b afraid to call the insurance co yourself (prior auth dept) to request a status update &/or to ask them questions. As the patient, u hold half the responsibility in knowing your benefits and ensuring all is in place. (Granted the bariatric offices do these type prior auths everyday & are very aware of the process, all the red tape & all the hoops they need to jump thru).
