  1. Absolutely. I had my surgery in August of this year. I waited for 2 years because of my fear of surgery. My biggest regret: not doing this years ago. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Liquid vitamins

    Source of Life liquid has been my best liquid Vitamin. If I miss a dose, I notice a huge difference. I get it on Amazon. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    You all lied!

    I don't have cravings but I do have real hunger. I think I lost the cravings during my liquid stage. I was into sweets and breads. Now, any food will do, as long as I get to eat every 2-3 hrs. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    What's the skinny on coffee?

    I switched back from decaf to regular coffee at 4 weeks post op. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    I hate these vitamins

    Those look amazing. How do you supplement the missing B12 and Iron? Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    I hate these vitamins

    I looked at those yesterday but it did not have enough Calcium, Iron or B12. Are you taking any other supplements? Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    Flu Season is Coming

    I get it every year. I have 3 young kids, and I don't want to bring them anything home that will make them sick. P.S. I work in the hospital. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    Disappointed in myself

    I only had to be on liquids for 1 week and everything was ok. My BMI was 50 preop. You will be fine if you stay on liquids from now on. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.
  10. Wow. Thank you for inspiring so many of us who started over 300. You look amazing. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    Anyone take liquid vitamins?

    I take source of life liquid. I like it because it's a cap full once a day. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    When did you feel "normal" again?

    My coworker said she felt normal at 6 months. I'm only 2 weeks post op and can't wait for that. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.
  14. I returned after 10 days. I was moving slow on the first day back, but after that I did great. Note to self: I don't have to take this day all at once but rather one step, one breath and one moment at a time. I am only one person.

    Non supportive spouse

    My husband of 17 years was not supportive for 2 years that I wanted this done. It was very important to me that I have his support just in case something happened. We have 3 children together. He said he did not want me to have this surgery because this was an elective procedure and he could not handle the risk of losing me and leaving our kids motherless. I get it. 2 years later, he finally came around after I presented my case again, and the kids did too. Fast forward to now, I had the surgery. My family has been my best support. They walked with me while I was post op, and they had Soups ready for me when I got off work. I could not have gone through this without them.
