  • Not trying to spark any debate but it just angers me greatly that it has now been approved for Medicaid patients.

Thank you! I'm hoping I have more to tell very soon

I'm in Plainfield, In. I have my last apt. With the NUT on April 22. Then to insurance for approval. I'm hoping that will be fairly fast. I'm also hoping the surgeon doesn't have a huge wait...I'm ready for this. I'm at St Vin. Carmel. I'm a little disenchanted with my surgeon.....I can't get her office to call me back.

No I haven't. I'm still waiting on a call from my Dr. I'm also wanting to lose 100 to 105. So far I've lost 30 on the liver reduction diet.

I've started the liver reduction diet. Its not too hard so far, but I'm only on day 2 lol. The hardest part for me is having to eat 3 meals and 3 snacks a day and I m so busy I hate keeping a food journal.

I've been on it since Jan 11 which was my first appointment. The first month I did have a few last suppers for myself. The three major ones were eating sushi, homemade beef and noodles and drinking beer. The first thing I did was cut out diet coke and that happened the very first day.

Cacucci did my friends RNY 8 years ago. She's a good Dr., but she's not known for her bedside manner. I don't know about her office staff.

I cut out diet coke immediately too! I also had "last meals." Are u taking Vitamins?

Yes I'm taking a multi vitamin and calcium citrate with D. I'm supposed to be journaling but I don't. I eat basically the same thing everyday for lunch and breakfast. I haven't had a Carb since I quit drinking beer over 2 months ago. I'm going to Nashville next week and I am going to have some Hot Chicken.

What do u snack on when u get the munchies?

I don't really snack but sometimes when I get home from work early in the afternoon I'm hungry. At times like that ill eat some low fat cottage cheese or string cheese.

Jerky is packed full of protein! It's a good snack. And the turkey jerky and chicken jerky doesn't have a high sodium content. Yogurt and cheese are always good. :)
