Guest guest Posted October 12, 2001 Report Share Posted October 12, 2001 I had the same question - Dr. K ( I think) said to call and they'd prescribe something. My memory about this is a bit fuzzy but this is my best recollection. Don't ever hesitate to call them. They want you to work with them with any problem or question that you have. It is better than leaving the matter unresolved and perhaps grow into a greater problem. They are so nice -- and so very accomodating!

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2001 Report Share Posted October 12, 2001 , I think your best choice is to be honest and up-front. Let them know about how minor it is. There may be time to dealy the pre-op tests without delaying surgery, or they may go ahead with it. I think that the sore throat would effect only the pulmonary tests, so maybe they can do all the other tests. Talk to them.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Pennie, 31lbs. in one month I think is great you should be proud of yourself. I don't know how fat burners work. So be careful. Everyone loses at a different rate. I lost about 20lbs a month at first-give or take a few. They have a site you can go to to see if your on track or not. Sorry don't remember it, but others here should be able to tell you. Keep up the good work!!

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Why would people even say your not losing fast enough? That's crazy! Before you know it, people will notice how much weight you've lost. What other diet coulc you have lost this much weight in 1 month's time? You don't need diet pills or fat burners-that's why we had this surgery is to stay away from things like that that didn't work in the past. in WA --- pennie walley wrote: > i am pennie and i had open surgery on may 28 2004 > weight was 312 and now 281. some peoplesay iam not > losing weight fast enough and that i should start > taking fat burners or diet pills and i dont know > what to do can some one helpme i cantsee the > differnce in my weight yet and iam not sure if thats > normal > > __________________________________________________ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Don't listen to what other people say!!!! Take care of your body and do all the necessary things, follow the rules and the weight has no choice but to come off. Suggesting diet pills and fat burners is nothing but ignorance and stupidity on their part. Ask yourself when the last time you lost 31 pounds in 3 1/2 weeks. To me it sounds like you are exactly where you need to be.
