Actually I wasn't put on any gall medicine. I see a lot of ppl here are put on it. My surgeon must have his reasons for not giving it to me. Now I just have to avoid high fat stuff..Which I've been...

Hello everyone. I was admitted to the hospital on November 5th with severe stomach pains. Turns out my Gallbladder stopped working and had some stones in it. Had it removed yesterday and am feeling...

I weighed last Wednesday and I was 204....Then a few days later I was 207. It was water weight from salty stuff...Now, a week later I am again 204. I guess I washed out all the sodium. But since I am...

I don't think the Unjury chicken broth has sodium in it. I didn't personally like it, but a lot of people do...I was on a stall at week 3 for 3 weeks also...I still ended up losing a decent amount of...

I weigh every day ( I know, I shouldn't). I ate some pumpkin seeds the other night. Every morning since, I have been up 2 to 3 lbs than I was before I ate them. I am assuming it's salt causing me to...

Well with my insurance I was preapproved based on my 43 BMI...I was given the go ahead once all of my Dr. Appointments were fulfilled and went well...I would think an insurance co would have...
