  1. I was off for 4weeks. And I asked Evanson for a extra week. I was physically able at 3 wks. But my body was in Ketosis and I needed a extra week to recover from that. I work 12hr shifts. On my feet. You will get your meal plan at your class. You will be on 2oz of week for 8wks. Plus your Protein drinks.
  2. Evanson normally take a hour for surgery. Mine took a hour and so did my husband's. Evanson is great. You might have a lunch break during your nutritional class. Bring something to drink. I think my class took longer. But I had someone who was asking a bazillion questions..
  3. I have not posted on here in months. Thought I'd come back to share my progress. I'm at my original goal weight. 140lbs. Here is my before 258 and current. I would like to drop another 20lbs. I am struggling with my food I want to eat all the time. I keep looseing and regaining the same 2-3lbs. Once I get over this sinus infection I plan on making some more changes.
  4. First time since I got married 7 years ago that my dress fits me.(size 16) Down to a loose 14 jean from a tight 24... life's good. Jessica. SW:258. CW:173
  5. Dr. Evanson rocks! Just remember when you go for your PcP for your weight in's. To keep everything weight loss related. If you take to him about being sick or whatever than insurance won't count that month!!
