Well yo be honest for Soup I tryed several but vegtable was good and potato but I got the soup at hand by campells any kind is great and it really fills you up. Ginny

Joyce · May 5, 2004

Well Ginny when did you start the potato Soup.I wonder when it says week 2 thicker Soups and milk shakes.Does that mean I can have potato?

thanks

Joyce

GinnyWhite · May 5, 2004

I may be wrong but it seems like Dr. S said that if you are getting hungry than try more things I would just make sure the Soup isn't real chunky more runny. But try the soup at hand Broccilli and cheese is really good and they have a velvet potato that is great. Ginny

Joyce · May 7, 2004

Well Wed. I went and got my staples out.I just seen Mellissa and she weighed me and tooked my staples out. I am happy to say I lost 12 pounds. I had a big smile on my face when I left.I am going to get my first fill on the 31st.Have you had a fill yet Ginny? I am sure you have Kelly or have you ?Could you let me know what to exspect if ya'll have? Mellissa just said no eating after mid-night.

No I will have a fill on Monday week. I am not sure what to expect. Congrats on your 12 pds. That is awesome. Ginny

I have had 2 fills, 1 unfill and then another fill. It is not at all painful forme. He puts a needle in your port and just adds saline. It is not a big deal at all....Good Luck
