Vsg and diet pills???



Recommended Posts

I didn't even know toprimate was used for weight loss until today lol. I was prescribed it about two weeks ago for my Migraines. I haven't noticed a difference in my weight loss though... and 2-3 pounds a week is actually pretty good. I average 3-4 a week with rare exceptions for more.

I was told NO go on any diet pills, Guess the reason was you need to adjust your life style and eating addiction Not rely on a pill. My surgeon said NO

You can't stay on most diet pills long, and in my experience, when you go off, the hunger comes back twice as strong.

I used to take topiramate for a seizure disorder. It had NO effect on my weight.

I take ACV, but not for weight loss. I take it for gut health and the secondary benefits like more balanced blood sugar and cholesterol. I don't believe it has had any effect on my weight loss or lack of. I have noticed that when I don't take it, I crave sugar more. So, there's that.

Otherwise, I don't think I'd take diet pills at this point. They didn't work for me before and I doubt they'd be any more effective now.

Why get surgery? Diet pills are 99% junk

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
