I use a different brand, but it's one I have to take 3 times a day and that has worked great for me! All of my blood work has come back perfect at 2, 4, 8, and 12 months post-op.

which one do you use?

i have the chewable and i get sick and end up throwing them up and i need to try something different so the Celebrate are $21.99 from my insurance site so wanted to try them i think is the chalky taste from my chewable that make me sick. the ones i take are from twin labs

yeah I'm sorry i was going to make it bigger lol but yes thats the one

i know if 3 but the ones i use are making me sick so want to try them and see and this are cheaper than the other ones i take

has anyone tried this Vitamins? ? is from my OptumRX thru UHC so wondering if anyone has purchase them or tried them before??

thanks

Thanks ladies I guess is only me

Quick question ladies?? is it only me that when is that time of the month I'm less hungry after surgery?

does it happen to others? I wonder!l

It wasn't like that before surgery

same 162

Sure if u do everything fast the faster I will get the date... Is funny they gave me my surgery date before my insurance approved the surgery so they are fast!! Good luck and anything u need let me know

I started all that process December and January went in to see the doctor and for my date March 23rd the only reason it took longer is because I kept delaying my EKG test :/ lol

March 9.. down 75#, 5 to go. Hair loss overwhelming. . Hope it shows soon!

hair loss same boat here and that's why I just got a pixie hair cut ????

The 180's were really hard for me to get out of (literally stayed there for 2 months)! For some reason, I'm blowing thorough the 170's. We will see how the 160's go:)

Same here man I also stayed in the 180-170 for a few months but now I'm down to the 162 hopefully it keeps it up

Sorry so late but just got back from vacation but still lost some weight 162.5

Hey guys I wanted to give a great tip I got from an article I read online a few weeks a go I'm trying to find it to share it but I can't but I will as soon as I do.

So we all have been there on how painful it could be to have a bowel movement ... well some of you might already know this but for those who don't I been trying the squatting seating position I used my daughter old step stool while I'm sitting on the toilet and put my feet up on the stool and it has help me tremendously.. So I guess this is the right way to poop!! Lol so I hope it can help some of you!!

This place has great support too

If you're six months out, the only reason you should be continuing to have Protein shakes, or any liquid whatsoever other than your required Water, is if you are unable to get the required Protein from solid food. Are you having such issues? The above posters are absolutely correct about the effect of solid food on receptors, and you should aim for dense protein at regular intervals throughout the day. Over time, the sleeve stretches to accommodate a little more food bit by bit, and it may be that you need a little more to feel completely satiated. To avoid weight regain in this instance, be sure to choose high quality Proteins, and maybe throw in some raw vegetables to fill up the rest of the room, provided you can meet your protein quota. Definitely avoid trying to close the satiety gap with starchy foods, but be sure there is some healthy fat in your diet as well...that provides fullness most effectively, although you don't want to overdo higher calorie stuff for any reason.

Well Protein Shakes is something my doctor recommend it for a very long time not for a short term so yes I still take them... But thanks to the other answers I will talk to my NUT and see what I can do!

Thanks all!!

Is been 6 months since my sleeve surgery and now what I feel is this emptiness feeling in my stomach even after I eat or drink like my Protein Shake I wonder is that's the way it will always feel from now on?

I'm in 170 goal 160

I'm having Lapband removed, gallbladder removed AND sleeve done on 9/29... Soooo nervous!!!! It all happened so fast! I was approved in a week and will only have 10 days of preop! Any advise or encouragement for multiple surgeries will be SOoooooo appreciated!

If u search in here u can find groups of people that had this done that can help u better and good luck with the surgery

The hormonal changes that you are having since surgery and the stress of the surgery on your body could trigger the period. I haven't had my surgery yet (come on Oct 22nd!), but I have a period about every two or three months. Having a lighter period on Mirena is normal. Some lucky few don't have one at all.

Yeah I didn't have any at all since I got the mirena but after surgery is lighter lol good luck on the surgery

funny part I had the first mirena in like 5 years a go gained so much weight so I took it out after 7 months but nothing change still kept gaining so I knew it was not it so I got it back few years back

I've had mine for 2 years and my period stop right after 3 months but now after surgery it has come back not as much as before but still there hope everything still ok I might have to ask my obg one of this days,

???????????????????????????????????????? Feliz dia de la independencia a todos los centroamericanos y que sigamos pediendo peso día a día oh manteniéndolo!!
