Hey, y'all!
Liquid diet started 3/27, surgery was 4/7, and here it is 4/21 and I'm down 35 pounds from the 310 where I started. Boy! 275! I haven't seen that in about 5 years! Only 85-90 to go!
Love,
Mark

Hey Y'all!
Surgery day is April 7th for me. Keep me in your prayers if you would.
Love,

Hi all!
I was wondering if anyone can give me their ideas on if I should modify my diet BEFORE surgery to get used to how I will be eating after.
Also, Dr. R, I'm hip on the supplements, but how soon can I begin low-weight-hi-rep workouts after surgery? I don't want to go too catabolic and waste away what muscle I still have!

I'm looking into MGB. I'm 54, live on a river in Oregon and want to survive to see my grandchildren. My first question is: How in the heck does anybody but a rich man pay 17,000 bucks up front (not having Blue Cross pay for it) to get this surgey??? I already know it's a question of life or death, so let's skip that, but really, how do you work it?
