perfectlyplicated

I had my plication done in September of 2011. Starting weight- 268 pounds. I am now 195. I have plateaued,

however, I am doing a colon cleanse today/jump starting my weight loss.

Day 1- liquid diet and colon cleanse

Day 2- raw vegetables and fruit.

Day 3- liquid diet

Day 4- raw vegetables, fruit and soup.

Day 5 - soft food diet.

This has helped jump start me in the past, and I would love a good 6 or 7 pounds in the week. It may not work for everyone, but it is worth a try.

Its so important for us to remember that our surgeries are just a weight loss tool, and how much we use it is up to us, right?

Just like a treadmill, we need to use it in order to make it work for us. So- we treat our bodies with RESPECT meaning, no more garbage food.

We may as well be eating out of a trash can if we are eating fast food. I am not perfect, by far, and yes, I do eat fast food occasionally, as well as crap

food at home, and I am seeing that it takes me no where fast and that I am neglecting to use the very expensive tool that I have.

Beverly- If you had surgery with OCC, I suggest talking with Dr.Miranda about a diet plan. She will help you out. =) And if you are eating too much - what are you eating too much of?

Own success story! I was choosing to be annonymous after

Surgery, but I see now how important it is to help out others
