So I got the form but it talks about ill or needy? And then it talks about the IRS. I am totally confused.

I'm going to print this and bring it to my pre-op appointment next week. I've already ordered from Bariatric Advantage and found the Wild Cherry Calcium Citrate chewables w/ Vit D are terrible. Unfortunately, I bought a 90 day supply...I'm just waiting until they are gone. The other things I ordered from there aren't so bad. Thanks for the info!

I didn't like these initially either. What I did was cut them into four. So I didn't have to try and chew that big Vitamin. Worked much better... My surgeon stated I could buy all my Vitamins at Walmart but strongly suggested Bariatric Advantage for Calcium. I have also noted a lot of people referring to taking gummy vitamins and according to my surgeon these are a no no...

Nienie!

So with this said we are able to swallow the chewable vitamins? Because I can't stand the flavor and consistency. I take Flinstones chewables. Also the calcium pill are extremely large and it's painful to swallow can we cut those too? :)

The calcium I cut up and chewed and drank Water with. I initially hated them but made them habit. I don't know if any of them are that great. Just an idea.

I forgot about the calcium chews. We tasted all of them at our seminar and they were good. Only downfall is instead of taking Calcium two times a day you would have to take three times a day and trying to spread them out between multi Vitamin might get tough-but would be good calcium to take..

I think you are supposed to take both the chewy and the chewable 3 x a day.....I do not always get all my bits in though.

Our doctor recommends 6x a day for chewy , wow big difference in amounts in food and Vitamins, it's amazing each doctor and nutritionist require different things , I wish it was 3 ,too many pills not enough real food ,I'm 43 days post op and still on liquids :'(

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
