  1. Hey everyone! Hope you are all well.

    Days are counting down so fast, May 5 is right around the corner! This is worse that being little and waiting for Christmas!

    Can we go over money needed to while there again? My husband and I are going I don't really want to bring more cash then necessary and if you could let me know what you all did for tipping that would be excellent! Also I Assume you all took US funds?

    Also did any of you get headAches on the preop? Or sick from the Multivitamin?

    Thanks again!


  2. OMG Kindle you posted that postop plan and it brought back memories. I would say the last days of the full liquid diet are a beast to get through!! I never was able to get my Water in because the restriction is no joke. It took at least a year my sleeve is so tight. But I'm thankful and would do it 10 times over to be where I am now wearing these clothes and people who don't know that I had WLS calling me teensy. Congrats to the new sleevers and the new ones to come!! I'm 18 months post, down 173lbs, and an official gym rat!! Awesome

    That is SO Awesome! 173 pounds is amazing!

    Thanks everyone! I still have 19 more pounds to go from now until May 5. I had been doing the premier drinks but then was confused about the carbs. Happy to see you have used them!

    Do I bring my Vitamins with me when I go or is that unnecessary? Also when you all were doing pre op did you take more than one multi Vitamin a day? (Kindle I saw your previous post on which vitamins/supplements you take ☺)

    I apologize in advance if my questions have already been asked and answered somewhere in this post!

    Thanks again!

    As soon as I received my Vitaleph multivitamin before my pre-op diet started, I went ahead and started taking 3 a day as labeled. I did not bring my large vitamins with me to Mexico as I was told to stop taking some of them prior to surgery (make sure you email Dr. Jimenez about your current medications and vitamins and get his advise on when to stop them pre-op), I wasn't allowed anything by mouth the day of surgery, and I wasn't allowed to start swallowing larger pills again until 7 days post-op, when I was back home. IIRC, I only brought my birth control with me, since I was allowed to continue taking that straight through surgery.

     

    Did you not take vitamins from surgery day to day 7?
