vsgquery

Hi, I would like some opinions. Please just the facts no judgmental diatribes.... I had VSG and it went great. Only problem is I decided to stay MX for a few months (business went very well and I could afford to do this).... Margaritas by the case full $1.50 a pop.....best time of my life...my neighbors even remark that they can see the weight loss which is cool So 5 months out I've only lost 30 pounds. The good news is I would have GAINED weight without the surgery... The bad news is I want to lose weight faster. I'd like to take adipex for about 3 months to accelerate my weight loss. Does anyone know a good DR in the TJ area? MY SISTER IS AN RN AND SHE SAID IT'D BE FINE. I feel confident that I won't gain the weight back after I get off the adipex, it's just that I want to significantly reduce my calories without any discomfort... (drinks have a lot of sugar and calories in them....) Also, I was kinda bad and didn't follow the instructions for the first 6 weeks or so. By the way, anyone reading this GET THE SURGERY. It's a great decision and I've been having the time of my life in MX!!!!! Tx

Guess what?! 1) I ditched the pill idea (talked with another person and they said it wasn't a good idea...) 2) I decided to lay off booz for a while (discipline was never my problem, I can stand some delayed gratification given how much fun I've had my first half here, lol) 3) I've been doing 600-800 per the post 4) The beach is utterly gorgeous so I've been joying friends walking about 4 or 5 miles a day (10,000 steps is the goal) 5) I've LOST 6 LBS SINCE I POSTED THE LAST THREAD on Monday!!!!! Actually that's more like 6.2 pounds in 4 days!! I guess easing up on the Jose Cuervo was the trick, lololol I'll update this thread when I'm 90lbs lighter..... My goal is for that to be miminum by March 31,2011 (they say a goal that isn't written down is just a wish, so here it is universe... Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to Everyone who replied back in advance!!. To Everyone's Prosperity & Health, Me P.S. I'm posting this in case someone else (was/is) in my situation and reads this......

Thanks. Also, chill out guys. I'm a realist and know my current lifestyle isn't ideal and. I also know there's nothing I can't do when I set my mind to it... I guess it is time to get on track. Having said that I've had the time of my life and it wouldn't have a happened had I not come to Mexico for my VSG in the first place. The beaches, the bars, the warm people. Anyone thinking that they have to be skinny to enjoy life is clueless! Having said that I do want to meet my weight goals by June 2010 so I guess I need to get started soon!

Your weight loss is impressive. What would it take to lose 18 pounds a month, CALORIE wise? Yes I know it should be mostly Protein. I appreciate the tips by the way. I will change my eating habits permanently, I went into with my eyes open. Prolly start Nov 1. (lol)
