I've had the same problem and taken the sane thing. AMITZA DOES WORK BUT THEY USUALLY PRESCRIBE WITH Reglan. Ask your doctor. Yes, it mad me very nauseous because my stool was to hard to pass. Praying for you. I'm in the same situation

I was told that if you accidentally swallow the gum at this stage it will have to be surgically removed because it won't pass through your stomach. Very dangerous! !!!!!

Have far in between those two weigh in?

You look just beautiful! Thank you for encouraging us! I have my surgery next Tuesday. I need to lose 100 pounds . Nervous but excited. 51 year old me Sent from my KFSAWI using the BariatricPal App

My surgery is next Tuesday, February 7th. This is my 7 day of liquid diet. 3 premium Protein shakes a day and 64oz of Water. I drink a cup of low sodium broth in the evening. I'm also allowed sugar free Jello before surgery. I've lost 12 lbs since Saturday. I met with my doctor's yesterday and the pre-op papers were a little scary. But doctor's reassuring in the low risk outcomes they have had and it made me feel better. I was measured, pictures taken and given hugs by the office staff. Everybody is so supportive. Getting through each day fine. Only 4 more days until surgery! Excited and anxious but I'm seeing this through. No turning back. I've waited for over 6 months for this day. Our doctor's office has support groups, classes and offers you a mentor. Mine text me immediately after my pre-op class and told me she was there for me and what to expect after surgery. Very nice to have someone who has been walking the same journey. She's lost 120 pounds! Less than a year. She will come meet me for the first time surgery morning. Good luck to all you February sleepovers! I will let you know how it goes! Sent from my KFSAWI using the BariatricPal App

I have 5 bleeding ulcers in my stomach. Been on medication for a couple of months. Hopefully will have surgery soon. Last doctors appointment Monday. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

You can do this. My surgery is not scheduled yet but I'm hoping that I get a February date as my last class is January 9th. Very similar body shape but I'm shorter and wearing a size 16 pant and weight is 232. Soooo looking forward to surgery date! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

Hoping my surgery is in February. Last meeting is early January Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

I'm 228 and don't have my surgery date yet. Probably the end of January or first of February. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

You look awesome! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

I have my last class in January. Hopefully my surgery won't be very long after. I weigh 226 and have a BMI of 35. I do have stomach ulcers that were recently discovered and told I would have to get the scar tissue removed after the bleeding ulcers heal anyway. So I'm doing this for health reasons too. I'm scared to have the surgery but also looking forward to being a normal size again . Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

I don't have to write everything down but do have to have 6 months of dietician appointments. Next month will be my 5th appointment and they are saying surgery schedules are backed up to May. Sad to have to wait so long after 6th appointment in January Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

I have already been thinking that and I still have months before my surgery! It's like I'm sad I won't be able to stuff my face again at a buffet or cruise and it's like ending my life's favorite pass time. I totally get you! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

I'm on my 4th appointment and have two to go before the doctor's can schedule my surgery. They are pretty booked out but hopefully in May I'll be on the road To Being My Normal Weight again! Very nervous but excited too! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App
