Almost there!
So, I was told by my nutritionist that I needed to come to my next appointment with the vitamins that I will take after surgery as well as what protein I will be using. She wants to make sure I have everything lined up and don't have to think about it at the last minute. I am going to take the Bariatric Advantage Complete Multi Formula chewable vitamin. I tried one yesterday. I was scared that I would gag, because anything that I have to chew usually does make me gag but it wasn't bad at all. It didn't leave a bad taste in my mouth and it wasn't as chalky as I thought it would be. To be on the safe side I got the orange flavor, figured I couldn't go wrong with it. For my protein I did the dutch chocolate Isopure...YUCK! I definitely can not drink that stuff. It made me nauseous. So, I'm going to Costco tomorrow and will pick up the premiere protein that everyone has been talking about. I do way better with pre-made shakes than with that powder stuff.
My next appointment is Tuesday...I'm nervous and excited. I'm praying I didn't put on any weight and that I've actually lost a few more pounds. I haven't been on the scale in 2 weeks, so I'm not sure. But I will be asking her what my possibilities are with getting surgery the first week in August. I plan on being off from work for about 5 weeks and that is the perfect time since not much will be going on, also, I didn't want to miss more than 3 classes when school starts back up. So, I'm hoping and praying that she says that an early August surgery date is possible.
