    Calcium Citrate

    Also trying to find one that I can get soon and doesn’t take a long time to ship
  2. Hi! I need to take 1500 mg of calcium citrate containing vitamin D with 400 I.U. Any recommendations? The only one I can find needs to be taken 4 times daily which I would prefer not to do. I found one taken 3 times daily, but now can’t find it. Thank you!
  3. Hi! I’ve really been struggling with overeating. I usually feel fine while eating. It’s pretty easy for me to eat compared to what I’ve heard from others. The problem is I often have chest pain or an uncomfortable feeling of being full after I eat. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions? I also would appreciate any ideas on how to eat slower. I know when I’m eating too fast because my body tells me, but I just can’t come up with good ways to eat slower. I eat fast without thinking. Thanks in advance!
  4. Thank you very much! I am and I hope you find somewhere to have yours!

    Vitamins to take

    Also during purée what are some good foods? Are baked beans okay? Read that somewhere.
  6. What vitamins do you take? I had the sleeve 2 weeks ago and I got vitamins in powder form to put in water. I don’t like them and need recommendations.
  7. Hi! I saw Dr. Mark Pleatman in Bloomfield, Michigan. It was $11,200. That includes everything including 2 years follow up and a night in the hospital. Look him up! He has a website! I had mine 3 weeks ago and he’s great!

    On The Fence of Joining a Gym

    Hi! I’m a member of planet fitness and I love it. They call it the judgement free zone and I’ve actually felt like this is true. It’s only $10 a month if you do the basic membership or at least it is where I live. I think there might be a start up fee, but I’m not positive since I’ve been a member for so long. They have personal trainers that are free with the membership, but it’s not always one on one. A few months ago I met with a trainer and she put together a work out plan for me, but that was it. There was one other person in the meeting. I didn’t follow the plan, but I’m hoping to meet with a trainer again to get a new plan. They don’t continuously meet with you as far as I know, but you can sign up for as many classes as you want. I hope this helps!
  9. Hi! I have a few questions. The first is about how much is typically supposed to be eaten in the purée stage? I feel as if I’m eating too much, but I have felt uncomfortably full which has helped made me realize when to stop. Also I’m having trouble eating slowly. My nutritionist said 2 tablespoons in 10-15 minutes which seems so slow. Is that the same for everyone else? I’m thinking this might be for the next stage. I’m also wondering about water. I’ve accidentally chugged a few times without thinking, but I had no pain and wasn’t uncomfortable. Why aren’t we supposed to do this? Thank you in advance!
  10. After surgery how long were you on a full liquid diet?
