I start fueling and hydrating an hour before I work out. It gives me enough time to consume. I dont like to workout on a full stomach. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Always trust the medical professionals on health issues... I'm not a Dr. I'm not recommending anything. Some do fine without bariatric vitamins. (They supplement with over the counter). others have malabsorption issues that cause deficiency. Health risk Study below. https://www.hindawi.com/journals/jobe/2012/608534/

Not sure what answers you are looking for here.... you said: (1) I know all of the negatives that come from not taking vitamins (2) yes I do know that it is bad reasoning and that the problems will arise long term. (3) test soon to see if I am lacking with any of them which I am sure I am. I guess my question is have any of you not taken your vitamins religiously/.How did it affect you? And this maybe a silly question but does it affect weight loss at all? I Took my vitamins and blood test are all great. I'm healthy and happy as a result. Weight loss was great.

Many people have an addictive personality before surgery and it transfer over to another. Sound like you are in good hands with your doctor. Get well. Take care of yourself. I wish you the best to battle and to overcome this.

Happy 1st year out. Celebrate big!

Congrats on you 43 pounds down. One thing I noticed with weight loss is you have no control over where it comes off. I lost it in my face first. Then my legs and butt. My mid section was the last part to go. You will have moments that you struggle. Its ok. You will go through many sizes in the months to come. It's going to give you the excuse to toss the old clothing and shop for something new.

@336Mike Or should we call you Magic Mike now... Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me, I said Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me, I said

I'm wanting to poke out my minds eye..I got to see the actual sexting photo. My bariatric protein shake brings all the boys to the yard, And I'm like, Its better than yours, Damn right its better than yours, you can drink it But I have to charge I know you want it, The protien shake that makes me, What the guys go crazy for. They lose their minds, The way I whine I think its time La la-la la la, Warm it up. Lala-lalala, The boys are waiting

Dang ! @336Mike Now I cant get this song out of my head this morning..*laughing*

True story. I got a naked photo in myfitnesspal food log. I think it was my protein shake that caught his eye..lol My protein shake brings the boys to the yard.

I'm older and a bit traditional. Talk to me face to face..Let things develop organically. People that are looking for a sexual conversation on line are looking for a stranger to arouse them or get off. I guess they can't pay for porn sites. Would any of these people walk up to a stranger whip out there naked photos or actual junk, then ask about your sexual fantasies and to see you naked? Wow! Creepy sexual predator vibe...lol

People that have never been obese need to shut it! lol Some think we have surgery, eat anything we want, don't exercise and the weight magically comes off. We know how much work and dedication this takes. Anything you thought I'd do after goal that no longer mattered? Things that no longer matter after goal ..I can't think of any. I was more excited when I got to onederland than I was hitting goal. I had to ask myself...What do I do now. (happy and thankful to hit goal) It just wasn't what I had thought it would be. My bucket list has always mattered. I feel like I'm making up for lost time. Cheating after goal. I think of it as indulging once in awhile. I live life. I don't feel I'm missing out on anything. If I gain, I work hard to get it off...Weight loss is at a snail's pace years out.

ummm yes. smaller lol TMI - For the men ---look away! Sad to say... but. I would like some plastics there as well. Also hubby and I realized I have a pubic bone..lol

No plugging a product. Have you tried one of these? Set your small bowl on it..it will keep your meal warm https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Coffee-Warmer-Office-MWBLKPDQ-RB/dp/B000CO89T8

5 days! whoop whoop! Bring out the pom pom's! As positive as you usually are we give you a pass on the rant Soon you will beat the dang scale and be flufflesschix

I'm loosing my patience with people correcting others in a forum...Ugggh!

Cool recipe. I just looked it up.

Good point @dreamangel1974 would you be open to going through the process without his support?

Normal to second guess and to be nervous about this. There are risks with any surgery. Also health risks continuing to be obese. I see it as a win win situation. You are doing this for yourself, your health and your loved ones.

My two cents.... Here is the obstacle - He is withholding support and not respecting your medical decisions. His remedy to the situation His diet plan for you and no conversation about it. It takes two actively working on a marriage. When one refuses to even discuss something its a big red flag. I agree with you. Counseling sounds like a great option. He should have respect for any licensed professional ...right? Life's too short to not have a voice. Dropping subjects to avoid conflict, Is your point not be articulated or is it being walked over? other people having to show him how selfish he is? (I think he knows exactly what he's doing to get his way) is your decision/opinion less valuable than his? Live life with no regrets. Wish you the best in how ever this plays out for you. Jenn

My surgery instructions are over three years. I'm sure things have changed. no straws drink 30 mins before and after you eat. 60 to 100 grams protein no alcohol until 6 months no sugar low fat No bread pasta rice until I lost 75% of my weight. Healthy carbs were added to slow/stop my weight for maintaining. I'm glad to see instructions change and evolve with time.

I have to be careful and measure it out. It gets the sweet craving out of the way. The down side for me : It's easy to eat the pint and make it a meal. Ice cream is my weakness/kryptonite
