  1. Was also told no caffeine
  2. I have a silly question about vitamins does anyone in here use gummy vitamins because I just went out and purchased a bunch because they were on sale! Then I spoke to my brother this morning and he said that bariatric patients shouldn't use gummy because they don't absorb properly so somebody please tell me I'm not the only one that does the gummies

    Does anyone have spurts where they go off and on to the gym because I certainly do I guess it's because I get so busy I don't feel like going! I know I need to go but just can't get myself motivated

  12. It's been almost 11 months since I've had my surgery I was at 387lbs its been a struggle day to day with all the cravings but as of last week I have lost 202lbs and in a size 10-12 jeans! I'm just hoping and praying that I don't fail! All the support groups are on the nights that I work would actually be nice if I could actually talk to someone that's been through what I have! Especially moments when it feels like you've gain weight and really haven't idk I know I'm just rambling!
