On this week’s show our Drop Zone feature is all about ing’ing. We review a book written by a gastric bypass patient that’s 30 years out from surgery. Have a look at the best way you can give back to the weight loss surgery community. And wrap things up with a review of a B-12 supplement that’s a blast of minty goodness!
NOTE: Please note that we made a mistake on one of the links mentioned in the video. The site for Andrew’s book is www.andrewLEONleclair.com Our apologies to Andrew for making this mistake.

Nice job Freaks!
Like the shirts
Is it just me or was the background music a little louder this week?

It may have been. Was it to much?

As always – LOVED the show. Y’all make me crack up when you get tongue tied. I really liked SPEW – never heard that one!!
great video. can you get all 6 sprays at once or do you need to space them out over the day? Also a spell check for you: barnes and noble not barnes and nobel. Sorry! I used to be a teacher. Old habits die hard
I didn’t even catch that one, Jen.. thanks!
Thanks Jen! This show was a bit of a spell check nightmare. Between you and me, I think this will be the 4th or 5th version I will be uploading to the server!
As for your question on the B12 spray. It was explained to us by the folks at Building Blocks that the dosage was 3 sprays 2 times a day.
Thanks again!
Mike
Jen,
To confirm, we suggest you break up the 6 doses over the day. We here found in the office that two doses of three sprays in each serving has made for a good method to not have too many doses but to give your body time to absorb the B-12.
Have a great day!
