He guys for those of you who have had the sleeve what Multivitamin are you taking? Thanks surgery is July 13 I start my high Protein low carb diet on Sun :D

Hey Kiki 52 ! I'll be arriving at LTVSG on the 14th. We may run into one another. This is all so weird and exciting.

 

As far as Vitamins are concerned I'm pre op but I watch a lot of vids heck all the vids from Dr Mark Wiener or Weiner (sp?) on YT he is a baratric surgeon and he has loads of info on his channel. He suggested a bariatric vit at least for the first few months and after that I think I'm going to try liquid vitamins or prenatals (which I have taken many times preggers or not which I'm not of course lol) I'm about to try to order some of the bariatric vits and I pray they aren't too expensive:( lol

 

Are you excited for your date?

Had my surgery July 2nd with Long Term VSG. Dr Maytorrena was awesome. Just returned home today and all I can say is I feel great. Anyone who uses this team of specialists will be in awesome hands.

That's great to hear especially after the controversy about the other surgeon I almost picked.

That's a great question my husband is going with me and that's where he is going to stay the first night.

City Express is pretty good. It is near the border... the hotel is relatively new, bed is comfortable, service is way over acceptable... the only complain I've heard from friends who stayed there is that WiFi was a bit unstable, at least from the rooms. But CE is a fine hotel. ;)

@@César Faz, thanks so much for the quick reply. Unstable wifi isn't a big deal when my husband will really only be there to sleep at night. Very good to know. Thank you ^_^

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
