When swallowing tablets of medicine?
Katherinedj replied to cocoa8utter's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Bariatric Pal website has Vitamin Patches. Does anyone know if these are enough of what post gastric bypass are supposed to take and if they really work? Thanks! -

Question about recovery/care at home
Katherinedj replied to RNYDawn's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I would encourage him to go. If you have help from your parents, then you should do fine. As suggested before, if one of your parents could pick you up, then you would be all set. I would ask them to bring a small pillow so you can hold it on your tummy to help with the bumps since you have an hour trip home. -

I eat Attain Nutrition Bars by Melaleuca. They are really good and there are a couple of different varieties. I am going more for the Protein factor but they are crunchy and satisfying.

Well, loser in the Powerball, not even 1 number. Congrats to the 3 who won in 3 different states. I am a winner, though, with every pound I have lost and losing. That means a lot more to me than Powerball, even though it would have been nice. :-) -

When swallowing tablets of medicine?
Katherinedj replied to cocoa8utter's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am 10 weeks out today and I can take small to medium pills but would rather just use calcium citrate chews and all my Vitamins are chewable. I could probably swallow the bigger pills, but just have a preference not to. :-) -

Can't tolerate protein drinks
Katherinedj replied to waterbaby's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
The program that I am in also recommends Premier Protein. I find that it tastes better at room temp instead of cold, but that is a personal preference. -
