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. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App -

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. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App -

Hi, exactly where did you purchase your vitamins and protein from? What kind of you don't mind me asking. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App 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. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App Brand is Nature Made Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App @@MizTX525 all that would be for your Post-Op..... Right? 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. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App -
I first went to True Results in Irving had a horrible experience & wasted my time/gas. They asked me prior to my visit what insurance I had & made my appointment anyway. I arrived & they had me fill out tons of paperwork only to tell me "Sorry we don't except your insurance but you can do cash payment of $10,000!" Walked out! I heard about Dr. Clayton Frenzel made my appointment on 5/13/16 & the ball started rolling fast. Endoscopy, sleep Test, Stress Test all done within a few weeks & my surgery is now set for 7/26/16. His staff have treated me very well & have been welcoming & are awesome. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App

My insurance doesn't cover bariatric surgery however during my endoscopy they discovered a hiatal hernia & gastric polyps so hoping my insurance will approve. Also I'm border line to having sleep apnea at 4.2 with 5.0 being the mark. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
