Hi I am finished with nutrition and about to see the surgeon for my 3rd visit. Still a couple of months out and I am also very ready to finish the surgery part of this. I hope you have a great weekend

Hi I am in Walker , la . I am pre surgery. It would be nice to have someone else at least in our state. Lol

I am in Louisiana and I have Medicaid and United health care community plan . It is different for each state because it is a state funded program

Wow ! That is crazy. How ever your doc should know how to handle it

Don't wait, just call them directly. Good luck.

I have not done that but looks like that is my next step

My doc put me on diet pills , he did not tell me I had to lose a certain amount , or tell me a diet plan or anything

And who here has united health care community plan???

@charismatic I questioned this too. Especially because a 2 week diet isn’t required for everyone. From what I can tell, most doctors basically want a high Protein low carb Keto diet. Keto shrinks your liver so why force liquid only version with artificial products when I can also achieve the result with real food?

The only conclusion I came up with is that liquid only is a good blanket solution for everyone and has less a chance of people slipping up by eating too much, eating the wrong foods or having real food trigger a binge.

With that in mind, I mixed in a small amount of real food (eggs, grilled chicken, cottage cheese) the 1st week and have been all liquid the 2nd week.

Grrrr, there I'm feeling it with you. Hope somehow you get resolution soon.

I live in Denham Springs. I'm just getting started.

Anybody else?

I'm interested.

Please let me know if there is enough interest to start this chapter. I would be happy to give a try
