Hi, I am Lenore, I went to see nutritionist Tuesday and the class was over 2 hours along with other people getting the surgery. She said that I would have to start my week of all liquids on the 18th of this month. My date is the 25th I really really pray that I can do this liquid for the week. I went to the store and bought what was on the list so Tuesday is the day.I was told also to drink a half bottle of citric magnesia The day before surgery. Did anybody, doctors tell them that they had to drink that as well ?.

I am looking for people live in the Belleville area that is getting the surgery.

Yes, It seemed like forever but it will be well worth at the end results.

I understand and know how you feel.I have been with my Dr for about first of the year He really is a great Dr, he worked with me when I didn't want to work with myself. He gave me a task to do to lose 20 pounds and I thought it was going to be easy but it was not. He is the most positive Dr. I have met and a person call tells that he cares about the patient and takes the time to let you know that he want you to be sure about the meal placement drinks and it is a big part of your life changes you will go through. After all this time I lost the 20 pounds and finally got my surgery date. It is next month and I am so happy.I all most gave up but he kept me going.

Hi guys, I went to the doctors today and I thought i had lot more than 3 pounds sense last month. I have been going hard on my work out i do. I have changed my eating and not really drinking soda or juices i will say i do drink tea with equal but not everyday. Got 11 more pounds to lose and thus is driving me crazy. Today I did find out the Atkins shakes are really not good for you, wished i had of known and i wouldnt been buying and drinking fore a meal. I also found out the dr wanted me to have 60 grams protein and i was only doing 32 so now i know that could be one the reason i am not losing like i should. Yall tell me if i am wrong. please let me know. Thanks

i agree what yiu said about the Atkins shakes,they are good. i do drink the powder drinks and the are thicker than Atkins so i add a little Water in it.and it get a little thinner but i add less milk so keep it up you will do fine.

Hi Tammy, I am Lenore and i am in the process of having the surgery as well. I have done all I need to do needed to do but losing the last 14 pounds i need to loose.I can relate about the Snacks it is hard but i changed my snack instead of eating chips i would eat pretzel and fruit but sometime i be wanting to eat ice cream and stuff like that.I know it is hard and when you deprive yourself a person want eat more so if i want ice cream i would have sherbet that helps. But if you would like you can write me anytime. Take care

Hi everyone I did go to the doctor on the 19 and i did not get my date. I was sad and upset. but I know the doctor is looking out for me. I have to lose 14 more pounds so i am working toward that goal I will keep y'all undated. Take care hope everyone is doing fine..
