I'm postponing mine I just found out that my ins only pays 50% of the 16,000 dollar surgery. So my out of pocket would be 8000 and they want 4000 before they do surgery. Than make payments for the rest. So depressed

Hi NewMe- I'm feeling pretty good! Glad that I am past the liquid stages and am on puréed / but I am not doing baby food - still lots of protein shakes and i do refried beans w a little cheese and taco sauce. Went back to work today

I live in Pottstown, PA but work in North Wilmington near the mall. So I could be an honorary DE support person. I sleeved back in the beginning of February so am a bit ahead of you guys.

NewMe- I am sorry to hear that you have to postpone your surgery. Have you checked with your insurance yourself about how much they will pay? It almost sounds like your surgeon/facility is either non-network or not a Centers of Excellence under your insurance. They may pay more if you go to a different facility/doctor.

I was just sleeved one week ago by Dr. Peters in Wilmington, but I live in lower Delaware. Anyone live near Georgetown?

I'm so sick of chocolate protein shakes after 3 weeks of liquid. Any suggestions? I'm drinking some milk and broth.

Full liquids you can do cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup strained - trader joes (sorry I know there isn't one down there) has some yummy broths and soups

Sorry to hear that..smh I pray everything works out in your favor as soon as possible...

I bought Matrix vanilla and was allowed to add frozen no sugar added peaches or mangos. Berries would come later.

I also used DaVinci SF syrups such as caramel, brown sugar/cinnamon, gingerbread, peanut butter They have other such as raspberry.

You can add Peanut Butter to the chocolate or vanilla shakes. There is PB2 which is powdered peanut butter. I just used real peanut butter.

I did eat some creamed soups and strained the chunks out. I loved the broth from wonton soup.

I would suggest ordering samples of Matrix or Nectars. I got mine from MyBaratricPantry. They have a huge variety. I drank shakes for a few months after the full liquid phase to make sure I was getting Protein. I use them less now that I am 5 months out from surgery. It is nice to have the shakes available for awhile. I way prefered the Matrix or Nectars to the pre-made.

The full liquid phase will pass soon enough. You will get throught it.
