- I am thinking *maybe* he just had all of his patients answer a

questionnaire and looked at their stats and put the two together.

This is something this list could do, too, if people were willing and I think

I would find it very informative for my own uses.

Post -ops of 6 mos or more -

1. How much and what percentage of excess weight did you lose by your 6

month anniversary of being switched?

2. Were you satisfied with this weight loss?

3. Did you or did you not eat sugar?

4. If yes to sugar, how much did you eat?

5. Did you or did you not eat carbohydrates?

6. If yes to carbohydrates, how much did you eat?

7. Were the carbs complex carbs or simple carbs?

8. Did you excersize during the first 6 months?

9. If so, how much did you excersize?

Would anyone on the list be willing to answer the above questions for our own

informal survery?
