I just laughed and had to explain it to him. He is overweight to I really hope this not only helps me but it will help him too. He is mamas boy and he does what I do. So if I finnaly get my life back and get out there and do stuff. He will to. I can't wit to take him horseback riding. I use to love that .However since I was so overweight I didn't want to kill the horse if I tried to get on it..LOL I hope you have a good day. Also if you want to email me it is [email protected]. ..Talk at you later ...Beth

Melissa! Per my physician's explaination as to why we have to loose some weight and also discontinue using sugar is to ensure that the liver is not to large to perform the surgery. The doctor has to lift the liver up to do the lascopic surgery and if its too large they can't do the surgery. By losing weight and stop using sugar it ensures them that your liver will reduce back to normal size and they can perform the surgery. Sugar makes the liver enlarged. Hope this helped!

Karen, thanks, that does make alot of sense. Melissa
