OMG!!!! Can can not believe this is working for me. I am in shock really. My surgery was two weeks ago today and I am now down, 17 pounds, total. For me that is 16% of my excess weight that is now history.I could have never lost weight before this fast on my own. I just love my new tool. I was so afraid of having alot of nausea or vomitting and such but it has not happened to be not even once as of yet. I am able to get in my 2 health/protein shakes a day and two small meals. I think I am up to 1000 cals a day.Thanks be to GOD and to Dr. Ben-Meir at CCBS.
