Hey everyone! I have a quick question. I've called around to a few stores and I'm having trouble finding prenatal chewable vitamins. I'm not pregnant, but I know that these Vitamins have ALOT of the minerals/nutrients that women need. Has anyone seen them around? I've seen the gummies, but my doctor said to not take them because they don't have all the minerals in them as chewables do.

I've had this conversation with my doctor before, basically what they told me is the normal Gummy vites (NOT with any extras!) you just take two instead of one. Or, you can even do the flinstone/kids ones as well (same thing, just take two).

My OB told me to take Flintstones chewables with Iron as a prenatal. Works fine - and so much easier for me to take with the lapband. I also have to take a DHA supplement, and that is a big pill for me - am looking for a liquid or chewable form of that one, if anyone knows of any. Thanks!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
