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.

IM thinking you might be on a medifast type shake like some have done!
I just did two days of liquids doing a pouch reset test!

YOU will be so motivated that you can do it.
AGAIN it makes ur surgery safer to loose pre op
and reduces fatty liver size for a safe lap surgery

I only had to do 1 day liquid diet but I know alot of people on here had to do something like your explaining Jerry. I know its sounds like alot but its oh so
worth the prize in the end~!!!! Does your insurance reimburse you for anything like this. Some companys you can submit receipits and etc....Jerry I am getting very excited for you. things are falling into place and it will be here soon.

Hi I am new to this board and have been doing some reading lots of great posts. Jerry I will have to do a two week liquid as well I will have to do protein shakes that consist of useing carnation instant breakfast carb options kind and add to that some whey protein with milk, that is what I will be using along with other liquids of course, maybe check with your doc to see if this is ok for you it is cheaper. I start my liquids on Tuesday few more days to eat. Hope this helped you.

Jerry I have no idea what that is. I bet it is like Medi Fast or somthing very simular to it. I would be shell shocked at the price myself. Atleast they told you early so you can save for it? Dont seem to make matters better I know.

Hey Jerry, your new avatar pic is great, your face is a couple of sizes smaller, thanks to that minus 40lbs.

I agree with MsVickie, it probably is a Medifast/Optifast type product.
