Tons of questions now...

So today I started my pre op diet and I have really been reading the book they gave me. In the book it talked about constipation during diet and after surgery. Has anyone had that happen? And did anyone have to take anything for it?

Also did u guys start walking when you started your diet or after surgery? Anyone have a gym membership? When did you start going to the gym??

Does anyone know if the fiber chewable or if the fiber gummie bears work?

I take them.. and I think they work great.. as far as over eating I think you have the mindset that you need.. no need to add to the stress of waiting.. and I feel ya I wish we could fast forward I am so ready..

What's biotin

Its to make your hair stronger and help grow new so when you start to loose hair (hopefully not much) it won't be so bad

I have it in quick dissolve pill form but its only the 1000mg formula. . They have 5000 and 10000.. but they are in regular capsules.. and I got mine at Walmart
