Premier Protein Shakes at Sam's Club!!!!!!!!!!!
Jan 05, 2011
Hi OHers!!
I just bought some Premier protein shakes at Sam's club that have 30gms of whey protein GREAT! huh? So As I was wheeling them out i asked the service desk if I could bring them back if I didnt like them, and they said, .............."Yes, bring them right back for a refund!" So there you go! You can go to Sam's and take stuff home, if you do not like them, you can bring them back. But, this is the best protein shake I have tasted and this include Muscle Milk, and it has the most protein.

Mixed and new emotions.
Jan 03, 2011
Well, I am 3 weeks post op tomorrow and I find myself having emotions and heightened anxiety that I did not have before. Has anyone experienced this? I say this because I was never an emotional eater before, but now I find myself wanting to cry more and feeling a bit of despair. Yes, it does pass after a bit, but I am not aware of what is going on. Lastly, I find myself more anxiety riden. For example, I am worried about everything now. I am worried that my family is in danger sometimes. I am worried that something bad will happen. Please let me know if this is normal for you? Any suggestions on how to deal with this?Hi newbies!

Dec 11, 2010
It has been a whirlwind. I received my approval before the beginning of Dec. AND I had my ultrasound and meeting with my surgeon on 12/6. I have been scheduled for surgery on 12/14 due to my insurance changing in 2011... So lets start the countdown: T-3 days!!

Waiting and Waiting...
Nov 19, 2010
Ok, ya'll i totally charged threw the paperwork, phone sessions and all. My paperwork was submitted on Nov. 12th, 2010. I went to the first information session Sept. 7th. I am trying so hard to have everything in order. I just cannot take this waiting. To make things worse... I just found out yesterday, that my insurance now approves the VSG. GREAT!!! This was my first choice, but when I started all of this, it was not on their list, so my doctor sent the paperwork in with RNY. ...
OK, this was fine, because I could not have VSG, RNY was my next best step. So, come Monday Nov. 22, all of this gets to start over again. BOO! I hope I can surgery by Dec. 31st, because if I cant, my insurance will not cover WLS next year. I am a bit discouraged and sad about this all.
I will keep pushing. Until I hear "No", I will keep pushing.
Until next time... I really hope it is better news.....
