  1. Kaiser insirance will get a discount and free shipping on Bariatric advantage vitamins is all I know of.
  2. I also had to fulfill all of the insurances requirements which included 12 weeks of classes, attend support group and then the surgeons requirements including his class and support group. (Whew) Recently seen surgeon and received a date. He gave me a list of vitamins to have and start on. Then he gave a handout of what to expect and other things to get such as gas x, protein stuff etc. I have did so much that I am surprised at how little some are required to do. I know every insurance is different but still it seems some require very little to no training prior to bariatric surgery. I recently purchased the barimelt vitamins amd wondered if anyone else has tried them. Thanks for everyone that is positing. Makes me feel less like I am all alone.
  3. Has anyone bought the required vitamins yet? Any suggestions on which ones are better?
  4. Thank you for sharing. I am going to be coming back to reread from time to time. This article is inspirational and motivating and I want to thank you for this article and its guidance. You look great and very happy.
  5. I have Kaiser and I had to go through 12 week of classes before I could even get a consult with bariatric surgeon. I received my surgery date at my consult. If you do not have to take any classes, support group class or a psych evaluation then you are lucky. I thought that all of that was the standrd now to go through prior to be pproved for any bariatric surgey.
  6. January 10th here! Excited and nervous.
