Dr. Said you can go up to 2 weeks without the multi and a 1 month without the Calcium. I take Bariatric Advantage. It takes me like an hour to chew it up and.swallow little by little.

I take Bariatric Advantage chewable multi and Calcium. They are supposed to melt in your mouth but I hate them so bad I chew them quickly with my nose pinched shut and quickly rinse my mouth with Water. Then I have to sit there and concentrate on not puking them back up. I was told after 3 mo I could start taking the Bariatric pills you just swallow

You got this! Sounds like you have the right attitude to carry you through. My date on the table for sleeve is June 8th. Let us know how it goes what it is like post-op.

Congratulations!!!
I am so happy for you in making this decision. It's not an easy one, or an easy road after, but you have your whole life ahead of you and this surgery will allow you to truly live it.
Good luck and please let us know how it went!!!

Good luck! You say you're freaking out a bit -- so did I and I expect just about everyone else in the last day or two before surgery. Just stay the path and you'll do great.
I'm 3.5 weeks out and amazed at how great I feel. Haven't regretted it for a minute. I was sore for the first few days but off all pain meds in about 3 days and feeling surprisingly good by the end of the week.
You're awesome and you've made a great decision. Best wishes to you.

Good luck! It's was a hard decision for me to make, but I'm so glad I did. I'm just over a month out and each day gets better.

Best of luck to you! I get my surgery tomorrow too--can't believe it's finally here!

I had some very close people in my life try to talk me out of it. I simply said that they didn't have to live in my body, that this wasn't a hasty decision, I have the support of my family and it was MY decision. Everyone's experience is different and just because it didn't go well for one person doesn't mean it will go badly for you. This is a decision that could potentially save your life. It is time to be selfish.

I had my 9 day post-op visit and found I had lost 13lbs. Shocked me, but I was thrilled.
