I am approved! Surgery on September 15th



Recommended Posts

I just found out that insurance won't pay for the B12 nasal spray. My Dr is trying to get the B12 injections approved now. :(

The b-12 injections aren't really expensive here in tn you can probably get a whole year for around 20.00 and that includes syringes....i hope they can get it approved for you....and yay good luck to sept approvers!!!

I am using no sugar added Carnation instant Breakfast with fat free milk (10 ounces) and adding extra scoop of chocolate Protein powder from GNC that has 20 grams of protein a scoop...makes it about 35 grams a shake...tastes great

Hmm i bought some carnation but realized it wasn't the NO SUGAR ADDED so haven't been back to the store. I bought alot of different Protein powders but just don't sit right on my stomach. Hopefully every day will get easier

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
