He said to drink a bottle of magnesium citrate and then start of 17g of Miralax once a day and to keep him informed. Miralax is out for me as they don't sell it in Canada, so after talking to the pharmacist, I bought Colace. I'm trying that before trying to gag down a bottle of the magnesium citrate though. I figure if the Colace doesn't work, I'll do the bottle tomorrow.... yuck!

Thanks Marla..... I'm feeling great about the numbers and still finding it amazing that I'm not hungry!! The hubby and kids had pizza last night and normally I would have had more than my fair share of it. I happily sat and had my 2 tbsp of cottage cheese instead and it didn't bother me one bit!

Sorry to hear that your pouch is causing you a bit of grief! Hope you feel better soon!

I bought one bottle of the grape yesterday to try and it is really good but I can't afford those on a regular basis. I bought a canister of the Nectar Caribbean Cooler to try as it seems that now I am lactose intolerant. No more mixing my shakes with milk.
