Zero Carb Premixed/Prebottled
"This has been the most beneficial item in my journey of weight loss. I can really tell the weight comes off when I use this on a daily basis. It tastes better than any other product I've been able to find also. I cannot stand milk so all those other products were out of the question for me. I'm really impressed with it's results."

"9/20/00 I have not met with Dr. Appel yet; however, I do have a consult on 11/30/00. I have been trying to get this approved for a couple of months now; however, my initial appointment with a surgeon was with Dr. Celio Burrowes. He was negative from the beginning about my insurance coverage and proved later that he just was NOT going to deal with them. He made an arrogant response to me that he was not going to pursue anything with them only after one (form) letter. He didn't even personalize the thing! My insurance company claimed they had some additional questions and faxed him a letter with the director's personal phone number on it....Dr. B. didn't even respond. (Claimed he didn't get it) I've decided that it would be better to have a surgeon that was willing to go the extra mile for me so I've chosen another surgeon. UPDATE: Met Dr. Appel on 11/30 and he was wonderful! He was very direct, open and most of all, honest. I have complete faith in his surgical abilities - he explained the why's and the why not's and contrary to what I've heard - he has a great personality! I also met a few very nice ladies at the consult last night, including Kathy, his program manager. She even followed up with me first thing this morning concerning an insurance issue. That's what I call service! 2/10/01 I have talked with Kathy of Dr. Appel's office a couple of times this week and she has helped me get some of my pre-op stuff scheduled. I'm getting excited! Can't wait to meet one on one with Dr. Appel! 8/29/01 If anyone is looking for the most competent surgeon in Georgia...well, look no further! Dr. Appel is your man! My surgery was over nine hours and I came through with flying colors thanks to the skills of Dr. Appel. I shutter to think what would have happened to me if I had chosen someone else. I would also like to make mention of the most competent anesthesiologist...her name is Ruth Cook. She, too, is a former patient of Dr. Appel's and when she came in to introduce herself she put me right at ease. I thought, who better to put me to sleep than someone who has been there and done that? It was a painful experience, don't get me wrong, but everyday does get better and I am so thankful that God has provided such talent to people like Dr. Appel!"
