Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

It's nasty but not as bad as this other stuff I had to drink before I had my hysterectomy and colonscopy. I can't think of the name of that mess but it was gross. I would rather drink magnesium citrate any day over that other stuff....lol

I will agree...the Magnesium citrate "quick-n-go" taste better. I used the lime one when I had my hysterectomy and it worked like nothing else. For this surgery I used Cherry Milk of Magnesia and it barely made it down. Good luck and stay close to the bathroom. LOL

HORRIBLE! No I am only kidding. I took the one that is in the green bottle and drank it really cold it was a cross between 7-up and a little alka seltzer. Not too bad at all.

I had to drink 1 bottle and then 4 hours later drink another one.
