How do I add an extra Ticker? Some people have more than one with extra info. When I try to do it all tha happens is it changes the one I have. Does anyone know how to add another one? I am sure I am doing something wrong. Thanks

wellesse.com The liqud vitamins taste great, the calcium with D tastes like an orange dream bar. The multivitamins tastes like fruit punch. the iron is not yummy like the others but is not bad at all, the b12 is kind of like sweet tarts. They do send free samples. -

About 3 weeks for me, and I had lots of back pain from laying in the same position. That was one of the worst parts for me. -
Changes coming to Vertical Sleeve Talk?!
Kathie5353 replied to gastricsleever's topic in Website Assistance & Suggestions
I am really hoping this page improves, it is just so frustrating! I do not want to come here like before; really sad about that. but since my sleeve I have learned changes can be good. Maybe I was here too much anyway. -

Pre-op cleansing and deodorant
Kathie5353 replied to mswisdom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was given a bottle of Pre-surgery soap to wash with the night before surgery and then again in the morning right before surgery to help keep down bacteria and chances of infection. I never heard of not bathing or using deoderant before surgery? This sounds really wrong to me! I would research this. Just sayin???? -
I use a Cocktail shaker with ice and shake my protein shakes in it, it is fast easy and makes it very cold! I drink it right from the stainless steel shaker. Easy fast and stays cold a long time! Also travels nice in the car

Stick with liquids, Pedialyte works well, and they make popsicles too.

In Columbus, GA.! That is so great! Dr Turton also has an office in Columbus, GA. You have to go to La Grange, GA. for surgery though. This is great!! Best of luck to you! Clawrence!!

It was the same for me. 9 weeks out now and it is much better.

Gas-x strips work well.

I have not tried bread yet, 8 weeks out. I really don't want to even start it again. It was a weakness of mine

Feeling a little guilty ..would love some feedback
Kathie5353 replied to Emilysmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It has been fairly easy fro me too. I only vomited once and that was because I ate too many noodles and I made myself vomit because of the pain. It is all about learning and we all are different. -
Constapation post sleeve advice please
Kathie5353 replied to rcc's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I get the travel packs that you mix in any amount of water stir until it disolves and the water is clear. It has no taste at all and seems to work in less than an hour. I don't over use but if I need to I use it. It beats being miserable.
