My 1 week results = DOWN 16 pounds
I just had my VSG one week ago today. The first 2-3 days were rough but I LOVE it now. I also had really bad reflux but that is gone now with Pepcid twice a day. As of TODAY I am down 16 pounds. I tried a hospital supervised weight loss program for a year and a half and only ended up rebounding higher than when I began. They put me on Topomax (had word finding issues) and Phentermine (would get angry easily). Can't recommend this enough.
Sounds like Qsymia (the topomax/phentermine mix) if I remember correctly. That made me horribly constipated...ugh! Good work getting through week one. You're off to a great start.
