Gummy multi vitamin after surgery?
I have been taking VitaFusion MultiVites gummy Vitamins since my surgery. They are approved by my surgeon. The serving size is 2 and has 15 calories and 3 carbs. My labs have been awesome and the few extra carbs did not slow down my weight loss. I met my first goal of 140 at 8.5 months. I am only 3 lbs away from my personal goal of 130 at almost 10 months out. I started taking them because I could not tolerate the chewables and I stayed with them because they are yummy. I can definitely go back to solid pills at this point if I choose. Be sure to check with your surgeon before you start taking them. Good luck!

Ladies, what do you consider your ideal dress size ?
I am currently in a size 6 dress. Sometimes an 8, depending on the make. I feel a size 6, for me, is ideal but I wouldn't be mad if I ended up in a size 4. As long as the dress has sleeves. It's so hard to find dresses with sleeves anymore.
