mbdavis24 0 Posted April 26, 2007 My doctor is Dr. McEwen and he seems really nice and says this is the best thing I could do for my body. I have changed the way I eat and cutting back. I lost 12 pounds within 2 weeks of going back to the doctor. I wanted to get started on not eating like I use to so when they say go I am ready. He says it shouldn't be very long before he hear's from the insurance since I have been on this since the last of February. I sure do hope so. I can't wait. I have been married for 20 years and have one son who will graduate High School next year. It is nice to meet you and I hope we can talk again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
