    I was 67 at ths tine of RNY Surgery. I've list 130 pounds and it was definitely worth it. Went from thirteen Rx meds to one Rx med. Quality of life and outlook continue to trend upward.

    I had coffee with a week of surgery and every day since. I had small amounts of borboun and draft beers with a month of surgery with no problems. I can't handle soft drink carbonation but beer bubbles are no issue (Thank God!). Now just over 14 months since surgery and down 130 pounds and counting.

    I'm at 11.5 months since surgery and I am 130 pounds lighter. I have been at a plateau for the last 3 months but I'm very happy at my current weight of 240 at 6 foot 3 inches!

    I travel too and avoid any fast food restaurants. I use the Yelp app to find local restaurants that have great appetizers which for me I usually can't finish anyway. That way I can consume tasty but not fried or heavy gravy food choices. And since the appetizer portion size is normally only 4 ounces or so, I'm never tempted to over consume. WIN WIN!

    I suggest using Miralax 2 to 3 times a week to naturally eliminate your constipation.

    djvalade got a reaction from Frustr8 in Better tasting chewable vitamin recommendations???   
    Check out Bariatric Fusion! It is one of only a few complete vitamins that includes calcium, B12 and the required mix of vitamins and minerals. It's available in 5 or 6 flavored tabs. It is taken 4 times a day. I had my Gastric bypass RNY surgery on May 2, 2018 and I've been very satisfied with this product!
