Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
hi all it's been months since I've been here. I'm 18 mos out with 20 lbs. to go. I'm ashamed to say I pretty much eat everything I did before, just smaller portions (although I havn't gone out and bought fastfood, pizza, cheesesteaks,etc.) for myself. I'll take a bite of someone elses, but not order it myself. If that scores me any points! Anyway I really want to get back with the program and feel I need a jump start. If I decide to I was thinking of taking a prescription diet pill, "tenuate" does anyone know if this is harmfull to my pouch? I know what your all thinking, Ugh what a cycle! Help
That's the jump start you need not a pill.
Diet pills don't work. We've taken a bunch of them pre-op and it was always the same scenario... You'll take them, lose a little then gain that back & then some... and find yourself back on the roller coaster you were desperate to leave behind when you had wls.
Just follow the rules of your wls! Start over now.
Best wishes,

Think about where we were and how we felt.
You know how to make this tool work go back and do the 5 day pouch test.
You will again loose weight.
