Adipex is basically an amphetamine, appetite suppressant that I don't like taking..I'm back to basics, protein especially chicken fill my pouch quick and i can actually feel it working. Everything else slides right through lol

You know you can do this. You did it once!! Hugs and prayers for strength and knowing
Dr Ponce de Leon Mexico VSG 4 Jun 12. I lost 57 lbs on my own before having a VSG. This is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself.
Best wishes on your wls journey.... best gift I ever gave myself. When you decide which type is right for you be sure to stay active in that surgery forum... keeping your head in the game is super important, IMHO.
You have an out of town appointment... people don't need to know all our business despite our social media dependance as a society ;)
What is adipex? Try going back to basics and removing sugar, bad carbs from your diet. Count calories and eat protein and vegetables only and see if that can get you back on track.
Good luck. You can do it!

It's all personal about what you decide. I chose not to tell coworkers and my boss when I had mine in 2004 and still don't share it with coworkers/boss. Just say it's a medical appt.; you really shouldn't have to share what type of medical appt. it is do you?
Good luck.

Well that honeymoon phase got me, I was living and enjoying life, lost about 100lbs, got into a size 12 Jean, wearing shorts....STILL thought I was fat. Lowest I got was 172, highest 290. I have gained back 30#s and could kick myself in the rear for once again "telling myself I was fat" when I was actually a nice size. So now I'm telling myself I'm super fat, a loser and hate my body and myself. My surgeon prescribed me adipex and told me to eat raw like him and see him in a month...yea his other Rx is to become vegan, he's a quack and says that it happens in RNYs because the stoma stretches and there really isn't anything they can do to fix it. So at it on my own, just venting, wishing I could go back and tell my newly post op self to take it more seriously. So we shall see, the scale is in time out, she hasn't been very nice
...so eat healthy, exercise and do it without a tool, prayers please and any support would be awesome!

Hi. I have been thinking about wls for years. I have taken the first step and booked in an initial consultation. The problem is that the first appointment available is only days after I return from my annual leave and because it's out of town I will need to take the afternoon off work to travel. I don't want to say what I'm going for at this stage and can't think of an appropriate excuse that's not a straight out lie. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks heaps
I have to stay away from pasta/bread/rice or I gain weight. Plus they make me feel stuffed and I hate that feeling!
thanks!
Surgery is still the best thing i have ever done.
14 pounds lost before surgery. My first ticker is when I hit onderland: this was my goal when I started on this journey. I want to focus on that right now...once I get there I can reevaluate.
My second ticker is my dream goal. Even if I only visit there for a short time, it would be nice to see that number just once. I am pretty sure I'll need plastics to hit this goal.
