Vitamin choices?
AmberMarie86 replied to AmberMarie86's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been looking online and trying to see what is best for the money. I am noticing not all of them are made the same! I want to make sure there is enough of everything I need in my Multivitamin. I guess I just want to make sure what I am taking is going to be the best for me. -
So my surgery date is April 20th. I am looking into Vitamins and am not sure what is worth spending money on? I don't want to have to take a bunch of different things and am looking for something that has most of the vitamins I need in one. Is there anything like that out there that you all know of or am I going to have to just deal with it and take multiple vitamins? Thank you all for any advice you have!!!

Vitamin choices?
AmberMarie86 replied to AmberMarie86's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know I will have to take them everyday from surgery on out, I was just hoping to combine some. I already take iron daily so that is one out of the way. I meet with my surgeon a month before surgery and we will go over that. The nut visit didn't really give me much as far as vitamins. Just told me that I need to take a multi and calcium. I am definitely hoping the surgeon will go over it and if not I will be sure to ask him before my appt is over! Thank you for all the advice! -
April Surgery!

I know what you mean! I have been doing tons of research from what it will be like to eat and what Vitamins to take. I am one of those people that wants to have everything in order and ready before hand! Hope your revision goes smoothly! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -

Feeling Ho Hum about surgery
AmberMarie86 replied to Karazona's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Think about how you will feel after you have lost some of the weight. That is what keeps me going. I think about being able to run and play with my children and that helps keep me motivated. Think of the things that you want to do and use that as your motivation. You can do this! -
I just met with the surgeon last month. Waiting for a surgery date for my RNY. I can't wait! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Pre-op appointment... Surgery just got real!
AmberMarie86 replied to tigraq08's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My pre op and nutrition appt are both November 8. Let me know how yours goes! It's exciting and scary but I can't wait! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -
So I am freaking out about my psych evaluation. I don't know why but I am! It is not until November 16 and I am already driving myself crazy about it. I don't know what to expect or if they will just tell me I need to do more evaluations. What was everyone's visit like? Or what were you freaked out about that did or didn't happen? Any input would be amazing and help ease my mind! Thanks all!

I don't think my appointment can come soon enough. My consultation is November 8. I am going crazy waiting for it to get here. I just want to get everything started. It seems like it is forever away! I need a plan and details and right now I have none of that and am waiting. I can't be the only one who is having this problem or has went through it! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Getting excited for my consultation! It is creeping up!

@Brenda Sherwood You were denied 5 times? That is crazy! I have called the insurance company to make sure everything is good before my consultation. I don't think I will have a problem with that but who knows with insurance companies. I hope you have save travels and your surgery goes well! I will be thinking about you!

@@KristenLe I never thought to clean out my closets, but it makes sense. I have been reading and watching videos to try to prepare myself as best I can. I don't want to do too much yet as far as buying things until after I have the consult and then I think I will be doing everything I can to get ready. I am a planner and have lists and things organized as much as I know how and can. Thank you for all the advice! I am looking for anything I can get.

Surgery without telling anyone?
AmberMarie86 replied to lynnedilligaf's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am meeting with the surgeon next month and there are only a couple people that know. I haven't told my family or anyone. My husband and a lady at work who had RNY. People are so judgemental especially where I work. I don't know how I am going to keep it from them as I am only 5 ft and BMI is 43. I want this to be about me making myself better and not people judging or talking about me. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App
