My surgeon told me I had to stick to chewables or crush for the rest of my life. All my meds have to be crushed. Is he being too restrictive?

I totally agree! My surgeon is tops! I have followed his strict instructions, lost 150 pounds in 8 months, and have not been sick once! I love the man! Thanks for replying!

You all are inspiring. I'm 6 weeks out, down 42 pounds but I have a long way to go!

That's awesome! My surgery was April 1, 2013. I've lost 125. I definitely feel 100% better. I'm 15 pounds from goal. It's a great ride!!

I never thought it would actually happen. I am 4 1/2 months post-op and have lost 97 pounds. I still have 40 pounds to go. It's all about rebuilding muscle. Best decision I ever made. Have a great weekend!

I had my surgery April 1st. I've lost 70 pounds. The first 3 weeks were hard, but slowly and daily things started to change. I'm so glad I had the surgery. You will do great! Listen to your surgeon and do as he tells you, and you will be fine! Best wishes!

After surgery we loose a lot of fat. Hormones are in fat... They go all crazy after surgery. If you already suffered from depression it will sure as hell will hit you harder after. Seek help ASAP!!! Don't just pray. Get help please.

Please please please call someone. Call 911, call 800-273-8255... Don't do this. When The Lord wants u he will bring u home. We all go through heart ache we all loose people its apart of life. Your love ones will be devastated if u harm yourself.
If you want to talk send me a message u can call me. Your life is precious, you are precious, your worth saving!!!

How are the TN people doing? I'm 7 weeks out and feeling good. I'm down 52 pounds, and the short time I had that wasn't o good, was worth it! Hope everyone are doing well!
