Vsg and diet pills???



Recommended Posts

I didn't even know toprimate was used for weight loss until today lol. I was prescribed it about two weeks ago for my Migraines. I haven't noticed a difference in my weight loss though... and 2-3 pounds a week is actually pretty good. I average 3-4 a week with rare exceptions for more.

I was told NO go on any diet pills, Guess the reason was you need to adjust your life style and eating addiction Not rely on a pill. My surgeon said NO

You can't stay on most diet pills long, and in my experience, when you go off, the hunger comes back twice as strong.

I used to take topiramate for a seizure disorder. It had NO effect on my weight.

I take ACV, but not for weight loss. I take it for gut health and the secondary benefits like more balanced blood sugar and cholesterol. I don't believe it has had any effect on my weight loss or lack of. I have noticed that when I don't take it, I crave sugar more. So, there's that.

Otherwise, I don't think I'd take diet pills at this point. They didn't work for me before and I doubt they'd be any more effective now.

Why get surgery? Diet pills are 99% junk

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
