Advice needed
Please talk to your doc. The vitamins r a must so they have to figure something out. I also have some that can be mixed in a drink they look like crystal light but u can drink them. Ask your doc first.

Help! 3 days out post gastric bypass
I agree with everyone. I cried too, but food grossed me out so I didn't miss it. I stayed in the bed a lot resting watching tv and sleeping I had a lot of pain. Walk as much as possible it really helps with the gas. Best Wishes

When would be a good idea to start the gym in full
I would talk to the doc. It really depends on you, your progress and health. Best Wishes!

What you tell people at work?
I agree. The info has to remain confidential. If not I would talk to an attorney. Share what u want to share or don't share at all. Some people r so judgmental and discouraging. Best Wishes!
