    Thea there's a liquid -it's in a little squirt bottle usually in the same area. I think it's called Omi. No aspartane

An chewing well I feel great I've lost 20 pounds. Don't get on a hurry remember We didn't gain this weight over night an we shouldn't expect to lose over night. I'm so glad I have had procedure done
