Fat Burners Ok To Take?



Recommended Posts

Hey everybody I hope you all are well. I am pre-op but I was wondering if you veterans can answer this question for me. Can you take Fat Burners Post-Op to go along with your exercise regiment? I will not see my Dr. for another 2 weeks and I am very impatient. lol. I appreciate it.

if you eat healthy, exercise and eat your allotted band amount, (these type things are not needed). let your band work and you help it. ((if in question, ask your dr what they think)).

We all have failed other diet regimins, thus leading us to weight loss surgery. I say no. You don't, won't need it if you follow the rules. Losing weight rapidly sets you up for failure or other health issues. Don't rush it the slower the better.

I know this isn't the answer you want, but you have to ask your doctor. None of us can answer this question for you, only your doctor can.

Personally, I'd say it's a waste of time and money to take stuff like that. You got the band so why not use it rather than some gimmick?

I can tell you what my Dr would say. No. But please ask yours to be safe... You could must likely do it via the phone.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
