My pre op instructions from the hospital said wash your hair but I would have to do it the day before it's too cold in a hospital to have wet hair and I can't dry it on my own too much hair I just want two braids.

Set for 7/26/16 excited. Got all my vitamins, protein drinks & etc ready to go.

I went to Walmart today & purchased meltable vitamins each bottle was a 130ct @ $5.97 ea. I got multvitamin, D3, B12, Hair Skin Nail, the Calcium was $14. I work at Grocery Dist Company inside a well known convenience store chain & we get lots of vendor samples. Quest is one of my vendors so I'm stocked up on those. I also got to try Premier Protein shakes & love them no nasty vitamin smell. They are 30 grams protein.

I started taking the vitamins in non chewables now so my body would get used to it & I would be set after surgery. My Nutritionist said that it was a good plan. I'm taking biotin because I have hypothyroid & it helps with hair loss. I like to be prepared.

I reseached & researched because some bariatric websites are a bit expensive on their supplements. A few of my colleagues had bariatric surgery & told me what they used & it helped save me some money.

I was told gummies are not great because they lack in what you truly need so I passed on them plus I was afraid they wouldn't go down easy.

A group of us last month started a private Facebook group for June-July-August sleevers. We closed the group after 50 people so we would be able to stay small enough to keep it personal. After us another group started and I believe they did the same. So you guys may want to think about starting a private fb group for you all to stay in touch and support each other. I love my fb group and we have phone numbers in our phones so our family members will text someone in the group to let everyone else know their surgery went well and they then communicate it to the rest of the group. I really love our private group so I am suggesting you guys think about doing the same. Best of luck!
