To tell or not to tell? WLS
cdsjjotn replied to RLH7882's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I told my 3 daughters, boyfriend, and 3 best friends. After surgery I told one of my sisters and couple of other close friends . None of my co- workers, they are very opinionated about diet and weight loss so I told them I had a hernia which I did and have gone on a high protein low carb diet. -

Vitamins and cost?

I asked if I had to take anything else, she said no. My next blood work will tell if anything extra is needed. The calcium comes in a patch too. -
Vitamins and cost?
cdsjjotn replied to Pedro Valle-Inclan's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Patchmd.com .. A life saver for me. $20 a month. I started with 3 different vitamins that were chewable, the taste made me gag. My nutritionist told me about the patch, change it once a day on the back of my shoulder. Yay -
Congratulations !! You're doing great!! And welcome to the loser club yay yay
