  1. Thanks for the suggestions.. But I really am interested in the bariatric advantage b12 peppermint flavored tablet.. I didnt knowit existed!! Is ordering online the ony place to find it?
  2. Thanks guys! I can't stomach the Gnc tablet under the tongue..it's too chalky. And cherry! Are y'all saying y'all just did the regular swallow b12s? I might try that in a couple weeks if my dr is okay with it but definitely will ask for the prescription! Thanks!!!
  3. I'm scheduled for surgery 2 days from now and im very nervous about my required vitamins! I'm a super picky eater and am trying my Vitamins before surgery. The b12s I have tried are awful!- vomit awful! I tried the liquid and tablet form you put under your tongue and can't stomach it.. My nut let me know if I took the bariatric multi Vitamin I wouldn't have to take additional b12 but I don't know if I could even stomach the Bariatric Advantage multis. I love my multi vitamin gummys and my dr is okay with me taking them.. I can't stomach anything chewable other then gummys.. No chalky gritty vitamins! I know I should just get over the bad taste but I can't, I will get nauseous and vomit! Any b12 ideas! I need something other then cherry flavor!
  4. Let's be friends!! I will be sleeved on the 3rd!
  5. Thanks! Im hoping I have the will power to follow my diet closely and dont have any complications.
  6. Yayyyyyyy! Im sooo excited! After issues with appointments and a moron of a physiologist, i have a date and it only took 1 day! Woo hoo! Any other Sept 3rd sleevers? I need a buddy!

  8. I'm September 3rd as well!
  9. Im waiting on my date!,
  10. Prairieville! Just moved here from baton rouge!
  11. My insurance requires a 3 month prep program.. I have to see my NUT and regular MD once a month for 3 months... Or 90 days. So the way I was told to do mine was.. Do both visits on same day, then make your next 3 appointments 4 weeks from that date on the exact day.. For example..my 1st appt was on a Monday so I have an appointment every 4 weeks on Monday. So 4 Monday's total.. 1st day, 28th day, 56th day, 84th day.. Then I submit paperwork to insurance on 91st day! Hopefully I explained that clear enough! Good luck!
  12. Mid August.. In Baton Rouge, La
