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.

the most concerning for me is the amount of calories i'm consuming..
only 450 (5 shakes per day)
is that what you needed to take as well?
i need to go for 8 weeks to lose 30 lbs.
did you exercise when on this diet?

Red face Wow....

Well, I've been hearing of many more doing the Medifast lately....

Another person who's doing Medifast now is "greensgirl19".

She's got to be on it for 6 weeks....I'd PM her for sure.
Good Luck in your journey...

the caloric intake will prepare you for AFTER surgery too....as you won't be able to take in as much with your new baby tummy!!! I think after surgery, I consumed 500 calories a day for a WHILE!!! I'm still probably under 1000 calories a day now and nearly 6 months out.....with the vitamins/protein/water and healthy eating, you will get all you need!Congrats on starting your journey....this is a great place to learn ALL about this roller coaster....the medifast/surgery are actually the easy part...once it's all said/done!!! WELCOME ABOARD!!
