    My two week pre op diet consists of three Protein Shakes a day, one cup of non starchy vegetables, and one TV lean cuisine or weight watchers dinner between 250-300 calories. I do liquids only for the day prior to surgery.

    Wow...our dates are exactly the same Stephanie! Right now I am researching and trying different supplements. I tried a cherry b-12 sublingual that was super gross. Hoping to find something better. Gonna try Bariatric Advantage berry multi Vitamin chews...I am hoping it tastes like a starburst:)

    I will definitely ask my doctor about Bariatric fusion. I agree that something has to taste good for compliance. I will probably order some and check it out. Thanks for the tip!

    Bariatric Fusion is the only product my doctor recommends because it has everything you need and was actually developed by someone who knows bariatric surgery. I like the shakes so far. I have tried the Vitamins and they aren't bad either.

    I compared them to Bariatric Advantage, they are the same amounts of nutrients. The soft chews you will need 3 chews twice daily. Bariatric Advantage, you use 2 tablets per day.
    I would rather have good tasting Vitamins twice a day , versus chalky bad after taste like the BA chewables. I will be more compliant if the taste is good.

    Hi
    My date is also November 30th. It seems like there are alot of us with that date!!!! Yay!
    I have tried just about every Multivitamin, Calcium citrate, and Vit B12.< /p>
    I highly recommend Bariatric fusion mixed berry Multivitamin soft chews. They are fantastic and don't taste like a Vitamin at all. $22.99 for one month supply. 3 chews twice daily.
    http://bariatricfusion.com/soft-chews-mixed-berry-flavor.html
    OR
    For cheaper version ONCE a day ProCare chewable Multivitamin (size is not bigger than as aspirin)
    $11.99 for one month supply.
    These are very popular as there are not many Vitamins out there that you can get away with only taking once, they have been on backorder.

    calcium citrate I highly recommend
    Bariatric Advantage 500mg in Caramel flavor. Delicious!!! Tastes like a caramel butterscotch. They are a bit pricey though.
    Vitamin B12, I highly recommend the Celebrate sublingual quick melt in mint flavor. These taste great, like a sweet mint, and melts super quick. Very reasonable price 15.95 for 3 month supply

    I will try the mint b12...thanks for the suggestion! I am excited for all of us with November surgery dates. Think we should start a Facebook group as others have done for people who share the same surgery month. Being able to message in real time with Facebook might be cool. Anyone interested in this?

    Maybe my stomach will shrink with less food. I think your right that it will get easier after first few days. My doctor wants me to start pre op diet 11/16. I think I will start 11/1 to have more adjustment time and lose more before surgery. I am 20 lbs up from when I got approved for surgery.....I need to get scale moving the other direction! When is your surgery queen?
