I'm a newbie and haven't had surgery and just started my classes I'm trying to figure out why my doctor prescribed me Wellbutrin and when I asked it wasn't clear ... I don't smoke and I don't struggle with depression so in curious if any vets out there went through this too ?

I take it for depression so I wouldn't know any other reason.

Well I was also prescribed Wellbutrin. It was for depression but apparently it helps with weight loss too. I stopped taking it after 1 month as I constantly had headaches as a side effect

It helps you lose weight and can also help with compulsive behaviors

It can help with weight loss... Maybe that is it. Personally I wouldn't accept the Rx unless the doctor told me why they were prescribing it.

I have taken it for a couple of years for my focus issues...i really like it but it never really helped me with weight loss. Good luck on your journey!!

He mentioned it was going to aid in weight loss cause you're supposed to loose 10% whoever I'm also very confused because anybody else I talk to says they have never been prescribed that to help aid with their weight loss in the beginning stages

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
