got my letter of acceptance today



Recommended Posts

I got my letter of acceptance today for the surgery. I have 4 more dietician visits then I meet with the surgeon. What stinks is that you can only go once a month. So it will be november before I meet with the surgeon.. Im getting more and more excited ... I knew going in that this could take up to a year. In november it will be 7 months not sot bad..

Jewels, this is great news. I've had to wait a year because in Australia, when you take out health insurance, you have to wait 12 months before you can claim for a "pre-existing condition", so I know how hard it is to have to wait that long. My waiting is up 22 October, I set my date on Thursday.

I know it seems like forever, but the time is going to pass before you know it. All the best on the last remaining months.

It's important for all of us to remember how much we wanted this thing and how much we waited for it. Wishing you smooth sailing until the big day!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
