I take Xpel for Water pills you can get it at GNC. My doctor put me on insulin shots I am not diabetic but it's one for weight loss it's called Saxenda. I started it on Wednesday and I have lost 6 lbs already, 4 more lbs to go by Wednesday for last SWL. I know I'll get the weight off now.

For anyone trying to lose 10lbs I would ask your primary care physician if he could put you on insulin (saxenda). You want the dose for weight loss. I lost 11lbs in one week.

I too must lose 17 pounds by the end of August (28). I have only met with the NUT at my surgical center once. She wrote a bunch of stuff down and then I refer to the paper. She suggested that I go on a 2 week diet of 870 calories a day. YIKES! But I will do that. We go on vacation next week with our son and youngest grandchildren, they will keep me moving and in the pool. Crunch time when I return.

One thing I don't understand is if they identify that obesity is a problem, not just that we want to be obese. They know that we have tried every diet under the sun 100 times without success. Why do they require us to lose weight and such a great amount before our surgery?

I am confused.

Good luck with your 10 pounds. When is your surgery? Keep me posted and friend me.

I think the reason the surgeons want us to lose so much weight before surgery is because it's safer to do surgery on a smaller person, and also they want our liver to get rid of its fatty stores and shrink. With a smaller liver, there is less chance of damaging it during surgery because they are in there moving our guts around, and the liver in an obese person can be quite large and in the way. The surgeon also wants to see that we are capable of losing weight and changing our eating habits. I think they try to weed out the people who think surgery alone will make them lose all the weight without putting in extra effort. I'm not a doctor or anything--that's just what I have read and seen in my research. I agree though--going on a diet before surgery is HARD! I've lost 12 pounds in the last month only to turn around and put 6 back on in a matter of days. Ugh!!!
