I don't think that mine has anything to do with the phentermine.. I'm not positive but I hadn't taken any in months before surgery. Some people after surgery have no interest in food what so ever but...

I took it on and off before surgery. It helped me but I was very grumpy while taking it. However, i have looked into taking it after surgery as an appetite suppressant. I happen to be one the few...

I bought a vitamix, which I love, but since surgery I do not know what to make with it. What kinds of things do you make? I would greatly appreciate a couple of recipes that work for you.

I think your stomach just isn't ready for it yet. You could try diluting your protein shake with 1/2 skim milk. At 2 weeks, the only think I could drink that went down smooth was skim milk. I also...

I really didn't have any bads. I really went in expecting the worse and came out thankful for everything that went good. My trip really was great. There is obviously something's that bother others...

This is one of my biggest struggles!!!

Yes, my vitamins have a lot to do with it. I was clinically impacted. I was SICK!! I tried stool softener, dulcolax, everything until it became an emergency situation and it took 2 enamas!! TMI, I...

Your going to pass them. Don't worry, with that being said, anyway to get green leafy stuff into your diet will raise your iron count. I've had to do that before for giving blood. I drank green...

Congratulations:) I'm glad you had a good experience as well ! Good luck on continued smooth sailings

Well I researched everywhere before I chose dr. Almanza. I researched all over the Internet,... Not just this site. They can't erase everything from the world wide web! Some bad stuff surfaced after...

I agree with doing more research :) while I was in Mexico getting my sleeve, there were at least 4 people getting a lap and removal converted to gastric sleeve. I woukd hate to go through more than I...
