A New Me

Like I Was Saying B4 About The Metamcuil It Doesnt Tast Right With The Crystal Lite And I Have A Feeling Its Because It Is Artificially Sweetened So I Doubt I Will Like The Mirlax. Id Rather Take A Chewable Or Pill. I Think Chewable Will Probably Be Best.

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.

Sams carries a large container of them at a good price. Benefiber also makes sugarfree chewables and they are pretty good too, you just have to take more tablets than the other brand.

Some things just naturally affect me. Can you drink 100% apple juice? Just a couple ounces a day seems to keep me in good shape. Also, for some reason, if I get up in the morning in time for a cup of coffee and just relax and drink it, it has a positive effect. Also, my NP told me to be prepared for a change that our new diets preclude us from our old bm habits - if its not difficult or painful, its not constipation. It never ceases to amaze me what we talk about!!! LOL

oh GAWD! 100% apple juice used to "run right thru me" pre-op. I could only imagine what it might do now

some do swear by prune juice and other additions to their diets.

what about cutting back on cheese edie?
