Yes. I thought maybe to much but then was told that I cannot overdose on b12..

Hi ladies, I am six weeks post op and pre op tom would come around every 8 months or so. I have lost 40 lbs and have noticed a slight change. The facial hair has slowed down a little and today tom came! Actually tom came the day of surgery (6/18) and I had it for two weeks. Also my pms was minor this time. I haven't lashed out yet. I did flip someone off yesterday but I don't think it was pms related... It was road rage ralated... Hmmm maybe it was pms..

I take it once a day too. But I'm glad I cannot over do it.

Congrats on your big day! I had bbq ribs and macn cheese before my surgery.

Thanks guys. I feel better about taking it now. Honestly, I like the taste of it too. This one dissolves fast too. Hope you are all having a great day!

I like this idea as it would eliminate one pill for me to take. Thanks for the information!

I'm taking 2500 mcg... Its by natures bounty. Does anyone take this?

I lost 30 and had to buy one smaller size. I lost a lot of belly though. My gorgeous gut is much smaller now.

Sometimes a few hours before diner I have 3 low fat wheat thins. I just get really hungry at around 3pm and we have diner at 530 so I need a lil something to help me out.

Wow you look great! Congrats on your success!

I've made the cauliflower pizza. It was good enough for my 15 year old twins and super picky hubby. I love it too.

Did they tell why?

Just FYI, I ask here because I know my nut and surgeon will speak to me in a condescending tone and tell me how I shouldn't do it! I wish they understood me better...

As much water as I drink, dehydration should not be an issue! Yay, this is sounding better each post. Thanks!

You know, my nut said that she knew someone who got an ulcer and after investigating it was because she was taking Vitamin (or type of pill cant remember) that had caffeine in it. She also mentioned the irritation. I am with Kaiser and they are extremely conservative when it comes to stuff like this. Sorry Kaiser, I cannot give it up. Thanks for posting me!

Meme: I love the taste too... sooo creamy and french vanillaie

Seriously... I almost cried when I read this! Wow, I am desperate. This must be how drug addicts feel.. Hehehe

so I tried to kick the habit twice already because my surgeon and NUT insist that I give it up because it causes ulcers. I quit twice but my energy level got so low that I could not function. Honestly, I do not want to work or do anything, just sleep or watch tv. Yesterday my energy was so low, to the point that I almost fell asleep during a meeting, that I decided that just for that day I will drink it... WELL! after drinking my coffee, I completed all my reports (due at the beginning of the month), ran with my dog and went to Home Depot after work. I have not had the energy to work out and after coffee I ran! I just don't understand how or why I need coffee to keep me going. My quality of life improves so much when I am on caffeine. I have almost convinced myself that having an ulcer would be worth it if I could just have the energy I get from coffee. Have any of you experience this? For those who have been sleeved for over a year, do you drink coffee and have you gotten an ulcer? Does anyone have any experience with getting energy from certain types of foods w/out caffeine? FYI: I take all my Vitamins and I sleep 7-8 hours a night. Thanks in advance for your help. Veroncia

I pee alot but I drink a lot. I am almost six weeks out and I drink 2 thirty two oz Water bottles, Protein drink, decaf coffee, popsicles, etc. I carry my water bottles with me in my sachi, a ventilated lunch bag. I also have an ice pack in it so it keeps them cool.
