Please notice that this WL " predictor " is for those who have had the

Mini Gastric Bypass ...not RNY or anything else......I believe there is

a BIG difference in the two....

I am about to show my stupidity, but what is MBG. Is it the mini gastric

bypass? If so, what is that. I just thought it was the same when I saw it.

WL predictor, and juice, etc.

**** I wanna caution anyone who's worried about the rate of weight loss . . .

this site is related to MGB, even if it's accurate, it's for them. It

isn't/wasn't accurate for me. I've lost *more* than their silly chart says.

BUt others lose less.

And to original poster - 17 lbs in 2-1/2 weeks is pretty great weight loss.

You'll end up losing more than 25 lbs the first month. I didn't. And I started

out larger than you.

That being said, I'd lose the juice and sugar, right fast. Splenda is good.

Fruit juice is nothing but pure sugar, with a little vitamin C. One doc, who

actually know something about nutrition(rare), says he'd rather see people wash

down a vitamin C cap with a Coke. Same amount of sugar, and no one is fooling

them self about what they're consuming.

V8 juice or salads may help with constipation issues, as can SF candy with

maltitol, or sorbitol. So can generic sodium ducosate (stool softener - cheap)

3 a day of 100 mgs. All of these are very low sugar items. COnsuming sugar can

lose the dumping mechanism, and sabotage weight loss. Even if you don't dump,

don't sabotage weight loss.

And I'd suggest that you do dump . . . and don't recognize it. Have any

queasiness, or sleepiness after drinking that cup of juice? If so . . . you're

dumping. THe diarrhea is later effect of dumping, and I wouldn't *ever* be

constipated, either, if I drank fruit juice every day. I'd spend most of the

day in the toilet.

HTH, and Good luck . . .

About your weight loss...you sound on target to me. You know you can't loss as

much weight as someone who weights 100 lbs more than you. I have heard it would

take about a year to get to your goal weight. Check out this web site

,

I love to see your numbers come up. You give me hope that I truly can loose the

great deal of weight I have to loose since I am right about where you started

out. You have lost so much is just 9 months. You are an inspiration to me.
