    Toning Legs

    What exercise/machines tone the upper legs?
  2. I had sleeve 7-29-17 (lapband removal 12-16) I am still struggling with Protein. I cannot seem to find a protein shake that I can tolerate. The after taste is what gets me. I have lost from 197 to 155 is that normal progress? If I could find protein would that help? Also what does everyone do for Hair loss? My dr said over the counter vitamins are better than no vitamins at all. I am taking One A Day Petites (2) and Biotin that dissolve (10,000) Thanks for any info you can send.
  3. Is the Calcium with the Caltrate? I think that's what it's called
  4. Has anyone tried the cookies n creme protein powder by Body Fortress? I'm almost 8 weeks Post op sleeve and can't seem to find a protein to tolerate. Any help would be appreciated

    Best Tasting Chewable Vitamins

    Can I use gummies?
  7. I am almost 4 weeks Post op from Sleeve. At my 3 week follow up, my dr said I could take any over the counter vitamin I wanted. He said I could swallow them didn't have to be chewable or baractric formulated. I am already taking biotin and b12 which are dissolvable. I am throughly confused now and told my dr I was because I had read and been told read vitamins needed to be chewable. He said just take vitamins didn't matter. So can someone please help!!! What are the best tasting chewable vitamins to take? Also what type of calcium? I have heard calcium citrate and also it was ok for plain calcium.. Also, dr put me on Vit D 3 times a week which I have to swallow can't chew it Thanks in advance for info
  8. Has anyone used vitamins from Bariatric Advantage? Chewable? Gummies? Taste? Need to find a vitamin and need help. My dr said I didn't have to do chewable or crush them. He said I could do any vitamins I wanted. So I am confused even more.

    Help?

    I had my sleeve one day after you. I am also struggling with being overly tired. I just start my purée soft food hoping that might help with more of a variety of food to eat.

    Can't drink Protein, HELP!

    Does this have the protein after taste? Are they overly sweet?
  11. I will be 2 weeks post op sleeve tomorrow. Someone please tell I'm not losing my mind. I can go from happy to wanting to cry. I have never been a feel sorry for me person. All I want to do is sit around. I have no energy and at the drop of a hat I am crying. Does this last very long? Didn't go hey this with my lapband. What is wrong with me?

  13. I'm almost 2 weeks Post op sleeve. I am having such a hard time with Protein. Makes me sick. Tried Premier Protein Water too sweet. Is Slim Fast bad to drink? I know it has Protein. Feeling very discouraged. Someone mentioned to me Inspire but it expensive and scared to order and it be gross? Anyone tried it?
