Phentermine?
Not on puree yet. But, the ppi that has been mentioned has been a life saver. It has crushed my hungry feeling. [emoji2] I still want the puree stage now though! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BariatricPal mobile app

What are you treating yourself to once you hit your goal weight???
Six Flags is definitely what I want to do. I've always loved amusement parks and when I couldn't ride on the roller coaster in July with my son and sister, I felt hurt. So, riding on the roller coaster is my treat and maybe a new car or tummy tuck if needed. I hope I won't need a tummy tuck. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BariatricPal mobile app

@gassygurl. Every time I asked to go to the puree stage, I get turned down. Smh, I've always been a foodie. This is the longest I've gone without food and I'm miserable. Too scared to cheat. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BariatricPal mobile app

Phentermine?
Yes, I feel hungry most of the time. Wondering if something wrong with me. I don't feel satisfied and feeling hungry most of the time. If I can get through this week, and stay busy, I can make it. And, I'm still stalling on weight loss all week. [emoji17] What is ppi? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BariatricPal mobile app
