I am using Pro Care Bariatric Complete Multivitamin. They are one little chewable pill once a day and they don't taste bad. $11.99 for 30. Ordered online and they arrived in about 3 days.

I laughed out loud when I read this title. Then I read it out loud to my husband and he chuckled and said "no, that's not wrong" haha. Thanks for the laugh

@@gowalking congratulations on your success(es)! Thank you for the words of encouragement. I am trying to become a strong and capable woman
...after spending so much time feeling stuck when I was actually doing was getting all the dominos lined up in the right place.
I really like this analogy! Thanks
Summer Rain, you've helped a lot of people by posting today's update. We all have weeks and months feeling like you described. Your turnaround even before surgery is awesome. We don't do this alone. Thanks for helping us and letting us help you. And good luck on the upcoming surgery!!! Woo hoo!!!
I hope I can help a person or two to know they are not alone. I am taking small steps now but small steps are better than no steps
@@VSGAnn2014 Thank you!

As long as you meet your insurance companies requirements ie 40 or greater BMI or 35 with comorbidity(ies) you should be fine. I think they just use the psyche to rule out the people that they think will have high rate of failure due to not following protocol or doing WLS for the wrong reasons. That's just my opinion though. I think you probably did just fine

I started this thread 2 months ago when I was feeling very down and sorry for myself. Since then I have taken advice and heart from everyone who responded so I just wanted to post an update on how things have been.
I started volunteering 5 days a week 5 hours a day which gets me out of the house and around people again. That, I think, has been a positive experience. Once I start losing weight I hopefully will be ready to look for a paying job. I have reached out to my immediate family with really no change - I was hopeful that things would be better but I am proud of myself for taking the steps. I can only control me, I cannot control anyone else. I can try again anytime in the future, right?
My surgery is in 6 days and I think I am in a good place. I am calm but excited to get it over with
I hope everyone is doing great and anyone that has surgery coming up - good luck and I hope everyone's recovery is uneventful and quick!

@@gowalking no way! If he says he is doing it all on his own then he is not lying. He is a public figure after all and they wouldn't lie to the public...would they?

oh, @@Summer Rain, i would have loved to have had you as a surgery buddy, but i just got off the phone with them and they said 11/4 is already booked. they will call me later today to give me the definite date. i'm very bummed. i hate waiting for anything!!!
I hope you don't have to wait long! I agree waiting is just a waste of our time lol

Looking good! 50 lbs is awesome!

Congratulations to you all! Such a weight off your shoulders, isn't it do any of you have surgery dates yet?
-
Good luck! Hope you have a fast recovery!

Waiting is the worst! I hope you all find out soon. Waiting for approval, even though we know we all did everything right and jumped through all the hoops, is nerve racking.
Good Luck!
