I can't believe we're finally on the losers bench! Congrats to everyone on this side of the journey. Keep us updated with your progress.

Our April first peeps are Deana Wright, MissMeagan and Nella. Ladies, tell us everything!

Anyone use celebrate vitamins and do they give your urine a funky yellow color?

Any vitamin with iron turns it 'funky yellow'. :-)

Its the vitamin B that makes it neon yellow. Mine is too.

Or maybe it is the 'b'? I assumed it was the iron because I always took my B separately and it didn't change anything. I would often pass on the iron because it made me constipated, but when I did take it I noticed a difference in color.

Hi al...my love for protein and vitamins is definitely fading...I'll do it though. I seem to do better if I spread my vitamins out. Anyone tried flavorless protein? I'm thiinking of adding it to drinks.

I bought it to add to soups and broths. Someone somewhere suggested putting one scoop of unflavored protein in a little bowl in the morning. Throughout the day you add a little bit from the bowl to everything you eat or drink and by days end you've added 25gr of protein to your diet. Sounds clever and easy to do. I plan to try it after my surgery.

Will be 4 weeks out tomorrow on my Quarter of a Century birthday! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Hey all you April 2013 LOSERS!! Lol

I'm 33 days out and I've lost 34 lbs!! Woo hoo!!

Finally starting to feel normal again , first 3 weeks I cried everyday wishing I hadn't had this surgery !! I stayed so sick and finally with hard work and prayers and support I survived!! So anyone struggling with regret, hang in there IT REALLY DOES GET BETTER EACH DAY!! I still struggle getting in my 2 shakes and all my vitamins every day , but I always get 1 in for sure, I know once I overcome that obstacle I will have more energy and feel like working out more!! Wishing you all the best!!

HW: 315 SW: 313 CW: 283....GW: 150 or less!!

My fusion did not so i was like huhhhhh.

Happy Birthday!!

Thank you!

I was freaking myself out by weighing constantly. I let that damnable scale rule my life for so long I force myself to stay away...it is natural for me to fluctuate day by day and I was just getting crazy about it.

I dont own a scale.

Okay, now a question: Do any of you use a stool softener? If so, do you take it daily? How often do you if its not daily? Every time I have a BM, it's like giving birth. sorry for the visual. So I do have a stool softener, but I've never really had any issues before surgery. I only go about once a week...but darn. It's painful.

Thank you!

Happry birthday to you!

God bless you.

I own 3. Kitchen, and two in the bathroom.

Oh, and is anyone on fitness pal? I only have 1 friend there and would like more. I'm gangstashanel@yahoo.com
