Girl..... go ahead with your bad a** self. You are truly inspirational. Keep up the hard work and have a cocktail on me (LOL.) Deb

Sawree. I can only imagine how hard it is for you. Maybe drink more water between dinner and bedtime or go for a walk. Just remember to keep telling yourself this so my liver can strink and my surgery is safer for me. That's what I'm going to tell myself when I'm on my pre-op diet. Deb

Welcome. I'm glad to read you are doing well. Keep us updated on your progress. Deb

I'm sure your surgery is over by now. I just now saw the post. I know everything went well for you and much continued success. God bless. Deb

This was my surgeon's required pre-op class where we talked about the injections. All of his patients have to give themselves the injections. I don't think all surgeons require the injections, but it kinda sounds like most do to prevent blood clots. I'll probably do it myself, since several posters have said it is'nt that bad. If Snowcrystal's granddaughters can do it......I can too. LOL.

Congrats baby girl. I'm happy for ya. Just think you could be 50 or 60 pounds smaller by Christmas.:thumbup: WATCH OUT!!!!! Deb

I just had a consult with my nut today and based upon her recommendations. For the first 3 months, the supplement should be chewable . After three months, you may change from chewable to tablets/capsule. Remember it must be smaller than a plain M&M to fit through your opening. Spread the vitamins/minerals throughout the day. Do not take them all at once. MULTIPLE VITAMINS/MINERAL: Two per day at different times Bariatric Advantage Multivitamin Celebrate Chewable Multivitamin Centrum Chewable Multivitamin {NOT Silver};after 3 months switch to Centrum A to Zinc tablets. Calcium CITRATE with Vitamin D and Magnesuim: 1500-2000 mg/day Take no more than 500-600mg at a time Do not take calcium within 2-4 hours of taking Iron or thyroid medicine. Bluebonnet liquid Calcuim Citrate with Magnesium & Vitamin D Celebrate Calcium Plus Bariatric Advantage Chewable Calium Citrate Lozenges Bariatric Advantage Calcium Crystals with Vitamin D Citracal Petites, to be used after 3 months, 2 tablets three times a day VITAMIN B 12: 1000 mcg/week sublingual - under the tongue lozenges, tablets, or dots {NO liquids}; you must let it DISSOLVE under your tongue for at least 2 minutes for aborption Nasal spray-once a week in one nostril {prescription only} Intramuscular injection- 1000 mcg monthly per your primary doctor B-COMPLEX: Once a day. Be sure it has thiamine in it. Even though your B-Complex may list Vitamin B-12 as an ingredient, you do NOT absorb B-12 adequately and must take Vitamin B-12 by another route Solaray B-Comples Chewable Twinlab StressMates Bi-layer Chewable wafers {2 wafers} B-Complex tablet/capsule, after three months IRON AND VITAMIN D Take additional iron and Vitamin D only on the advice of your physician. I hope this helps. I know it's kinda long. LOL
