    2 surgeries?

    My revision was one in 2 surgeries too. That's the only way my doctor will do it now. He used to do it in one surgery, but he said the chances of a leak are a lot higher (but like you said, still low) with one surgery. I had my band out in March but because of some other things that came up am just having sleeve surgery tomorrow. I hope that by waiting 5 months my stomach will be well healed and that I'll get a nice tight little sleeve.

    Bariatric Vitamins

    My surgeon sells Celebrate and the NUT gave me a sample. It is pretty strong tasting. Not bad, but I can see where I'd get tired of them quickly. Thinking I'll try the ones from Unjury since I like their other products. The NUT specifically said no OTC (even mentioned Flintstones).
  3. My NUT said I will have to take bariatric vitamins forever. I'm fine with that, but just wondered what type everyone is using.

    Quest bars

    GNC, Vitamin Shop, Quest.com, Amazon Thanks! I hope they sell them individually so I can try different ones without buying a big pack. Don't you hate that? I don't want to buy 18 of them if I don't know if I'll like them.

  7. I started my pre-op diet today and someone at work ordered pizza. One of my weaknesses.... But I drank my protein shake and tried to ignore the smell.

    I'd love to have a fb page where we can all talk and compare our experiences.
  12. I'm right there with you! I start my two week diet tomorrow too. I'm nervous and excited. I'm starting my journal tonight for this journey and plan to weigh in the morning. This is so exciting!

    Band to Sleeve lose more slowly?

    Are you still considered a revision if you have two surgeries several months apart?

    How much time off work?

    I'm planning on two weeks but will take longer if I need to.
