Hi, I am almost 3 months out and I have lost 50 lbs, with that many more to lose. I would like to know where is the best place to buy the Vitamins and Protein Powder at the best prices? Thanks!

I go to Costco!!! Vitamins are definitely cheaper and you get double the size. I buy my Protein shakes from Amazon.com or bodybuilding.com. both are very reasonable.

I buy my Vitamins at costco as well. I also bought chocolate flavored whey Protein. In the big inning I mixed it with soy milk but I find that now I can tolerate 2% milk so I use that.

Prenatal Vitamins are free at Meijers ( if u take them instead of 2 Flintstones) we had the choice of either.. I like Vitamin shops calcium citrate wafers 1000mg each... Favorite Protein I like is Lean shakes from GNC or there Quest Protein Bars

I use Syntha-6 Protein shakes (vanilla ice cream and chocolate cake batter. I just found out today that I have to buy sugar free Protein Shakes, so I need to buy the premier (ready made) that they sell at costco. They r delicious and she said that's the best way to get my 80-100 grams of Protein each day.

Thanks everyone I'm using smoothie kings gladiator right now, it's really good but expensive. I will try some of these suggestions.

I tried them, and thought them disgusting. I take the Celebrate Multicomplete chewable. It's yummy! Orange is my favorite.

I tried various brands like Bariatric Advantage, Flintstones, Centrum etc but they were all useless. They chewables made me nauseous (because of the fillers in them) and the sugar content in the gummies were a major concern for weight gain. I then switched to capsules and finally on my nuts advise I settled for Vita4Life. It’s been three years and no complaints. I get all their products off the website. You can get the products off Amazon too.

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
