Prescription Appetite Supressant And Band

[shues138 35]

I went in for my fill today lost 6 lbs from my last visit a month ago which I thought was fine. The aprn who does the fills comes in and says she wants me to lose faster and gave me a prescription for adipex I'm just a little confused I paid to have this surgery so I don't have to do things like this but here I am at cvs waiting for my prescription I have to go back to the Dr in two weeks for a follow up she also gave me a fill too. Did this happen to anyone else out there????

that is one of my fears. I have tried to take Apidex before and hated the way it made me feel. I would go a mile a minuted during the day and I would crash in the evenings. My kids hated me on it as well...boy was I crabby.

I don't know...I would think the lapband with the proper fill is where the weight is supposed to come off from. I too got the band to stop with all the other garbage. I sweated like a pig the whole time I was taking adipex. I think I would cry if the dr. suggested this to me. I don't think I would do it. Call your doc and tell them how you feel about this.

I would wait to talk to your Dr in two weeks. Six pounds in a month is great! Plus you got a fill so that may speed up your weight loss.

Personally... I would NOT take any pills for weight loss. But that is me.

Congrats on your weight loss.

Thanks for the advice I got the prescription which was not covered by my insurance ::rolls eyes:: I'm going to give it the college try for two weeks and if I feel like crap I'm going to stop. My overall health is way more important than the aprn seeing a fast weight loss.....if I wanted to lose weight fast I would've had a different surgery.

Keep your fingers crossed for me
