Well thank you!! Yes I am a man 39 years old. Lol i started my journey two weeks before my surgery I was 420 at surgery I was 408. So since surgery I'm down 108. My surgery was June 24th. I will say I was always working out even before my surgery. I swim even then 1 mile in less than 40 minutes. I also did weight training with bike and elliptical work!!! I will share supplements if you need me to.

Wow that's wonderful....I would also like to know about the Protein, supplements and Vitamin as well.

Surgery 6/26/13 HW 328 SW 308 CW 256 72lbs! I'll take it! It's has been frustrating not being able to get back in the gym. I've been battling low potassium levels on and off since surgery. Doc says no pushing my heart till it's up or my heart can go start beating irregular.

Hi. I too am having problems with my potassium levels dropping since surgery. Right now I am taking 120 meg per day..that's 12 pills...this happened after I was hospitalized for a week with them trying to get my levels back up. I know that low potassium levels control your muscles and your heart can stop, so it is dangerous. No one can tell why it is happening though...did you doctor find out why it is happening? By the way, you are doing great!

I have a family history of a potassium and magnesium wasting disorder so we are trying to figure out if I am developing that now or if it's something different. I too was in the hospital but I was originally admitted due to a 5mm kidney stone that wouldn't pass. I did have low potassium prior to my vsg surgery so who knows. My doc has me taking potassium supplements that is in the form of a powder that I can add to my Water and or crystal light a couple times a day. The potassium pills are very rough to take on a normal belly yet alone on our tummy size. I hope you start feeling better!

I think that is in settings somewhere, but don't remember exactly where. Maybe on the web?

I found it. Do you use an iPhone or the web? If you use the mobile version on an iPhone, click on more, then settings, then scroll down until you see "When opening a thread, always," then click on that and choose what you want it to do. I have mine set to jump to first unread post. I hope this helps!
