sheryl 3 Posted May 9, 2006 I also want to add that I agree with Shontel 100%... I mean, come on... If we could do well on a diet, we wouldn't be in this situation. I also was self-pay and went to Mexico. My dr. wanted me to lose 5-10 pounds because he said that the shrinkage of the liver is really helpful during surgery, and even a 5 lb loss was very beneficial. I think 5% is too much to require, IMO... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
