The program through my docs office says no bread, tortillas, rice, crackers, pasta etc for the first 6 months out from surgery. I am two months out and following those recommendations.

I meant where you reply...

I wish on this new app the Facebook share tab was not right where you post - too risky for me as many of us on here want to keep things completely private from other sources besides BP.

4MEL21 - thank you for the tip!! Going out to look for some today!!!! ????

Great feedback! Anyone using Celebrate Vitamins? That is what they have at my docs office. And I wish they would all take the word Bariatric off the bottles - for those of us keeping this private!!!!!

8 weeks out and needing to reorder vitamins. Taking Multi with Iron, B-12, Calcium Citrate. Bought Celebrate at docs office and going to reorder those or try Bariatric Advantage. Any recommendations? I want as clean ingredients as possible with the most nutrients etc - no messing around for me!

8 weeks out tomorrow and down 33 pounds since surgery!! So excited but have been at this weight for 3 weeks now - hoping to see the numbers decline ASAP again.

I do not eat rice at all. I ADORE sushi. Have been ordering a small seaweed salad (have a few bites) and 2 hand rolls without rice. It is SO good that way!! My fav meal.

I got mine while still in the hospital the day after surgery. Nothing to be embarrassed about but it was a hassle - having to get out of bed so often (ouch) to use the bathroom, heavier flow due to heparin shots and those pesky nurses wanting to track urine output by having to pee in a cup attached to toilet (no, just no no no with all the blood flow).

So needed some new drinks to keep up with hydration!!! Sounds good!!

NavyMom6 - if you find out how let me know too!! Only interested if a private group though. Thx!!

Beauty!!!!!!!! Vibrant!!!! Good work!!!! When were you sleeved etc. So exciting... I am 6 weeks out.

Hi - mine was with Dr. Higa on July 9. Really tough first few weeks as I felt GREAT but had to stick to the broth and mushy food for so long. Was super tired and lacked energy in the afternoon. Once I could eat more variety I have felt so much better!!! Still trying to figure out the 30/30 rule on a daily basis but so good so far. Down around 35 pounds. How about you?

Something that helped me realize my new reality today. Went out to lunch and sat at a booth that used to be so tight - not a prob today! Perspective.

Kindle - which whole food based vitamins do you take? I have been buying mine at the surgeons office but would like cleaner ingredients. Thx!
