Guest guest Posted August 5, 2000 Report Share Posted August 5, 2000 , Hi there. I am currently working on getting my weight down to have this surgery. When I started all of this I weighed in at above 440 pounds. I went on the Atkins diet and lost 17 pounds and 1 inch off my waist in a week. I am still on it and have not weighed recently to see where I am. But at that rate I will be on the operating table by the end of this month. The best suggestion I can give you is to try either the Atkins like I have or the 12 day diet that is on. has lost some incredible weight on hers, 22 pounds in 12 days. Keep your chin up I know what you are going through but in the end it will all be worth it to have a new life. Please e-mail me if I can help you in any way. I already have insurance approval, I have already been to clinic. All I am waiting for is the weight loss. With Love, Lara M.
