I can't find them anywhere. Anyone know where I can get them.

I'm packing up my stuff, finished my last day at work cleaned up the office, have all my paper work in order, I took the magnesium drink so gross nothing yet but I'm sure ill be up later taking care of business. I'll head over to the hospital around 11. They called and said my time is now 2 not 1.

Cried a little so I hope its my only breakdown.

I found mine at Walgreen. Good luck! I took the magnesium stuff too, disgusting. Nothing yet but I'm starting to hear some gurgles.

I'm packed too, do you have the biotine mouth spray or oasis for dry mouth? I found that at Walgreen's too.

I found mine at Pathmark. I have to be at the hospital at 6:30am for my surgery, which is scheduled for 8:30am right now. Heading to bed very soon, though not anticipating getting much sleep with my nerves being what they are right now.

I have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 5:30 am. I should be thinking about sleep but that's not going to happen. I'm scared, nervous and I've got doubts running through my brain. Is this really what I have to do? Can't I just keep on the liquid diet for the rest of my life? Maybe a personal trainer and liquid diet for the rest of my life...

I found mine at Wal-mart. Just want to mention my heating pad was my bff for relieving gas. My gas was in the chest in lower back and it made a huge difference. Good luck tomorrow!

I'm going through the same thing but I know ill fail again I have to go through with it. I'm scared very scared I'm going to the hospital alone and asked that no one come until I'm in my room. I just know that I need to be alone.

My emotions are all over the place, too. And I'm certainly having doubts and questioning what I'm doing. But I also know that I've done everything I can possible in attempting to lose the weight without medical intervention and nothing worked. I just keep telling myself this is for the best. This is the start of a new life for me!

I bought mine at Walmart. They had cinnamon and mint. You can find them with the stomach aids.

Good luck.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
