Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

You are so right! I don't know what I would do without my Magic Bullet! On top of the protein shakes you can make in it, it works really well for making purees. I brought mine in to show my nutritionist, and she is now offering them for sale out of her office. This is one "As Seen On TV" item I'm glad I found!

The Nectar Brand is the best I have found for protein shakes as of yet. The Vitamin Shoope says it is their best selling product. Heres a link for samples is here ... call them on the the phone. They give you tons of samples then you can choose which on e you like the best.

Nectar is currently offering a Variety 'Sampler' containing 11 full serving packets of the following flavors: Apple Ecstacy, Carribean Cooler, Crystal Sky, Fuzzy Navel, Lemon Tea, Roadside Lemonade, Strawberry Kiwi, Twisted Cherry, Chocolate Truffle, Vanilla Bean Torte, and Latte Cappuccino. The price is $21.89. They are, however, offering a coupon discount of $16.90 leaving a total of $4.99 plus $5.00 UPS shipping. The total you pay is $9.99 and it arrive in 4-5 days. Their # is 866-333-7403 x 718. Their hours are Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm Central Time. Their website is www.si03.com or you can email them @ customersupport@si03.com.

It's nice because they give an alternative to the sweet flavors. I was getting tired of the vanilla, choc, strawberry thing. Now I have some juice flavors and they mix will with a spoon!

I checked out that site. Everything sounds delicious! Are all of their products okay for us after surgery?

Good question .. every surgeon is different. I go by the sugars .. in addition the Nectar has no fat or carbs (of which is a plus). Though I will take a look at their site and see what other things they have.

Oh and I would recommend that you do not buy from them directly after you find one you like. Shop around .. Vitamin Shoppe has a money back guarnette (if you don't like it). I get mine on ebay as they are cheaper. This site is more expensive.
