Hey there,
I am between Detroit and Lansing, not too sure which part of the Detroit area you are in.
Hello!!

My scale that it. I find it to be WAY too depressing. That and it's terribly inaccurate. I think I will just wait until I go back in 6 weeks for my 2 month appt to check my weight. I will keep up...

Anyone really like this? I thought the samples were pretty good, but it's kinda pricey.

Thank you so much for your replies. My husband doesn't get it and gives me the 'you did this to yourself' look.
I have tried all the unjurys, 4 isopure flavors, 3 bsn lean dessert, a sampler of...

I had surgery 10 days ago, and am not having any real pain but soreness. I am just SO tired. I have a hard time staying awake to care for my 3 kids. I HATE every protein that I have had post op,...

I am having the same trouble, but I can't even stand the liquid version. I'm only a few days post-op, but can't imagine doing this for very long. It really makes me gag.
I would love some...

That I am finally able to post in the 'after' section!!
Has anyone had to take liquid colace? And been able to do it without gagging? This pill crushing or liquid medication makes me gag and...

I got sleeved on Monday. I have to say it was a bit rougher than I had anticipated, but I have survived. I have NO interest in food or drink and am finding it really challenging to get even close...

Congratulations!! You are such an inspiration!

I need to be at the hospital at 530am on Monday. Sorta glad it's first thing in the morning so I don't have to anticipate it all day, but that's really early.
I can't wait!

We are sleeve buddies, I am getting it done on May 2nd also. The day can't come quick enough for me. I have been doing the preop diet for 10 days now and am ready to move on! Welcome!!

And I am already gagging on my protein shakes. I don't know how I am going to get through this.

What kind of liquid protein is it? I would be interested in trying it.

I'm scheduled for May2nd and isn't getting here quick enough!

Just got the approval! I am so excited, it still seems a little surreal. Looks like the first day of the rest of my life will be May 2nd.

Thanks, whtarrant. I am east of Lansing, having the surgery at U of M, hopefully.

Blue care network in Michigan.
I'm so afraid that after all of this I will be denied and have to wait more.

My paperwork was submitted to my insurance last week and now I wait. I have been getting ready for this since August, I am SO ready to just get it done. It's starting to wear on my nerves a bit. ...

I get that. And I have jumped through all of the hoops that my insurance requires. What is frustrating me is that the keep adding new program requirements. For instance, I was told I needed to attend...

Not too sure if this is in the right spot or not, sorry if it's not. I am wondering if anyone has had their surgery at the University of Michigan. I am having a terrible time right now getting...

FIVE years!! :eek:
That absurd.

Thanks for this info. This only serves to reinforce that I am making the right decision for myself.

Sorry to hear that your insurance is giving you such a hard time. Having difficulty with insurance is my biggest fear at this point. Can I ask what insurance you have?

I have given it a lot of thought. It's nice to be able to say that I am 100% certain that this is what I want. :D
I do, my husband will be home for at least a week, longer if I need him to be.

Hello!
I decided a while ago that I wanted bariatric surgery, I thought I wanted RNY but then I started learning about the sleeve and have decided that is the option for me. I have bcn and will...
