Hello mate,
Greetings to all! I hope someone will guide me in this matter. I would like to lose my weight up to 4 KG's per month. And only 1 KG per week. But I have a big problem. I can't stop my appetite anyhow. Though I am working full time and 6 days per week in order to lose my heavy weight. Now I weigh 105 KG's and my goal is to reach 80 KG's at best. I love to eat all the time. This is the most critical problem for me. Has anyone faced this problem yet? If yes, then what did you do to lose weight ? Though I found this website about appetite suppressants diet pills https://www.healthzmag.com/top-5-appetite-suppressment-diet- pills-2015 How helpful is this ?Did anyone try them ?
Please let me know. If you have other suggestion too. Thanks for your time!
Not only you. I have seen many guys are trying hard to lose weight but don't want to stop eating somehow. It's logical for the real food lovers. However, I think a well planned dieting can help you in this case to recover your hunger. Good luck!
One of our topics at a recent support group was about vitamins. Some recent studies have shown we all need them post WLS, even those who had VSG and lap band.
What do your labs show? I guess if they are good you could skip them, but I would not risk it. I say take the multivitamin at least.

Thanks, I'll look at that. I got some at the drugstore that said odorless fish oil 1200 mg and taking that for now. They don't taste or smell so that's good. I'm not sure if they're helping or if it's just time for the withdrawal to be tapering but I do feel a bit better. I just can't wait to get all these brain meds out of my system and see how I really feel.
check out "the world according to eggface" website / blog
maybe that will help with some ideas
packets - can be purchased through Amazon - best for fish oil in my opinion.

Pinterest is your friend. There are low carb ideas, insta-pot ideas, meal planning ideas. Get yourself an account and set up some boards, then you can start making lists.
I plan my proteins for the week over the weekend with how I'm going to prepare them for myself and my family. Then I'm not coming home at 6 trying to figure out what the heck to do with the pork chops.
For snacks, I tend to stick with the Sargento Balanced Bites (chesse and nuts, prepackaged), almonds, yogurt, raw veggies with hummus. Sometimes popcorn as a treat.
Best of luck!

Keep on losing!

Jackie, I'm afraid I can't offer you any advice except that you might want to post this in the VSG forum. It gets a lot more activity than this one and you might get some answers.
I just tried the Nature Valley Granola cups and they are very tasty and filling. They went down well.
