  5. Well, It's just over 2 years, how are you all maintaining? All's good here. I do notice if I'm lax on taking my vitamins, I sure do feel tired & crummy! I would rather take the vitamins than the meds I was on!!! I wore a bathing suit for the first time in over 30 years this summer!

  16. By having a liquid diet, you are not only shrinking your liver, you are also emptying the solid particles from your stomach. Cleaning out your system...
  17. I still have knee pain, but it's from an old injury. Tylenol #3( with Codeine ) works best for me on my bad knee days! Extra strength Liquid Tylenol works better than the pills.

  19. LOL!
  20. Nicely said! Best thing I ever did for myself

  23. Cameron69, It does get better! It was the BEST thing I ever did for myself! No regrets here! Take your measurements & keep a log of your weight too. Walk & sip, walk & sip... Follow your dr's. & nutritionist's orders. Good luck & keep us posted.
  24. I used to add different seasonings to my broth to change the flavors... Mrs. Dash & garlic powder were my favorites. SF jellos were good too.

  28. I still do 5 to 6 small meals & I'm 16 months out. I'm maintaining with 1000 - 1200 calorie intake.
  29. I'm 16 months out & my only regret is.... that I didn't do it sooner! I feel so much better & I'm off most of my meds! I need to post newer pics (coming soon). I haven't had any complications AND I followed doctors orders too the letter! Some people don't and they pay for it.( I do realize complications can happen either way). Do a lot of research and you will make your own decision on what is right for you. Good luck
