I had VSG a yr ago with various disability issues back surgerys and overall disability issues I was bedridden after a workers comp claim I was unable to walk without assistance. My doctor now decided that Vsg sleeve was the best way to go. We knew it would be a problem because I'm not able to walk for exercise. and about my 8th month I began a plateau after losing about 65 pounds, In 11th month he put you on phentermine 37.5 milligrams half a pill twice a day. I lost 16 lbs! And found out why I was hungry all the time supposedly now I have a defective pyloric valve in the bottom of my stomach so that's why I was hungry more often I could eat little tiny portions but I was eating 5 or 6 times a day because it's like my body is treating my surgery like it was a gastric bypass. But only with the dumping into small intestine which is unusual with Vsg.

So I hv to be sure about drinking with meals , And oddly enuf sugary things don't bother me. So I am excited for my journey . Any suggestions let me know.
