Just weigh and get the staples out. You will see Dr. Spiegel. I lived on milkshakes:-)

i didn't see the Dr. he was out. I drank Boost it has protein and taste pretty good. Hi to you Kelly. Good luck Ginny

What kind of Soups can you have the second week?Is that the only thing added from the first weeks list?I have sugarfree Jello but I wasn't sure if I can have that for the second week.Nice to know someone is going through the same thing as me.

Keep in guys

Joyce

Well yo be honest for soup I tryed several but vegtable was good and potato but I got the soup at hand by campells any kind is great and it really fills you up. Ginny

Well Ginny when did you start the potato Soup.I wonder when it says week 2 thicker Soups and milk shakes.Does that mean I can have potato?

thanks

Joyce

I may be wrong but it seems like Dr. S said that if you are getting hungry than try more things I would just make sure the soup isn't real chunky more runny. But try the soup at hand Broccilli and cheese is really good and they have a velvet potato that is great. Ginny

Well Wed. I went and got my staples out.I just seen Mellissa and she weighed me and tooked my staples out. I am happy to say I lost 12 pounds. I had a big smile on my face when I left.I am going to get my first fill on the 31st.Have you had a fill yet Ginny? I am sure you have Kelly or have you ?Could you let me know what to exspect if ya'll have? Mellissa just said no eating after mid-night.

thanks

No I will have a fill on Monday week. I am not sure what to expect. Congrats on your 12 pds. That is awesome. Ginny

I have had 2 fills, 1 unfill and then another fill. It is not at all painful forme. He puts a needle in your port and just adds saline. It is not a big deal at all....Good Luck

THats Kelly for letting me know that.

Thanks
