I am really miserable! ! I am walking & getting in as much liquid as I can, but completely unable to pass gas. Does anyone have any suggestions? ? Also haven't had a bowel movement in at least 5days. Sorry for the gross information but am desperate! ! Any suggestions would be great! ! Thank you Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T337A using the BariatricPal App

Good luck! My surgery is also on the 17th!! I'm having the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy. I can't believe it's finally happening. So excited & feeling a little uncertain about the food journey. I've read about so many problems that others have had & it's just a little scary, but I'm in it til the end!! Hope things go well for you!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T337A using the BariatricPal App

I just got a surgery date today!! I go in the hospital on August 17th!! So happy it's finally happening! We're not the same date, but close. We could follow each other in our journey if you'd like.

I was promised an August surgery date as well. Would love to stay in touch. I'm under Julie Fitch on Facebook and you? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T337A using the BariatricPal App

My experience is that, YES, it made me have terrible nightmares!! So I stopped the nightime dosage. And it still takes cravings away. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T337A using the BariatricPal App

I quit smoking 5 months ago. It was incredibly easy because I used the prescription drug CHANTIX. Within one week of taking the pills I had quit with near to zero cravings! The medication is amazing! The dosage is one in the morning and one at bedtime. However, I would strongly suggest taking only the morning dosage as it makes you have terribly strange nightmares.

Yes, I would love a list as well. Can never be too prepared. And thank you for all the info. I have been waiting a month for a surgery date. My daughter is getting married late November and I really want to have lost at least 60 lbs. Everyone ion both sides of the family are thin and then there's me at 247 lbs. I so want to look nice in an evening gown. I am going a little crazy waiting. Every time I call to check the status of a surgery date they just say "call back in a week. There are 20 people ahead of you!" But every week they continue to say "They're are 20 people ahead of you!! Ugh!! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T337A using the BariatricPal App
