Curious questions about Meds
pebulz replied to elli'smommy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take a sublingual ( chewable) iron in the am then bariatric advantage has a multivitamin wildberry "crystals" you mix it in 8 oz water 2-3 times a day and then i take omeprozol opened into applesauce and a chewable b12 (rite aid brand) ....also take for pain percocet and extra strength tylenol and xanax i use a pill cutter for all 3 of those and just take one piece at a time......my dr said as long as they don't have a coating of any sort them i cab just cut them .....he also said he doesn't want me to take liquid meds Like i did with the band cuz alot if tines they are so sweet that they may bother my pouch -
Ok so ive wanted a kitchen aid stand mixer for years and the other day while laying in bed recovering from surgery saw one on QVC that i couldnt resist it came with the pasta attachment for FREE a $200 value and i bought it now im trying to think of diff things i can use it for besides baking since i cant eat sweets lol....i did find someone said put cooked chicken in it and it will shred it which i usually buy canned cause i do eat it alot ....i can not eat pasta but am wondering if maybe their is a carb free recipe i can make so after much rambling does anyone have idea of whatever i can make using my new mixer

I also had two bands and neither hurt like this but i also ended up with a bad infection this time and it had to be opened to drain and that has relieved some of the pain

I am only 2 weeks out so i dont know a bunch about the difference because im also only on liquids still.....so far the differences are 1) im not hungry at all 2) when i drink i dont get that weird feeling like its sitting waiting to pass through to my stomach i used to feel like my drink would come up 3) i have to mix one of my meds with an oz of applesauce and their have been a couple days where i couldnt finish the 1 oz and the last thing may not be the same for everyone and i dont want to make u nervous or anything because im still very happy with my decision but i feel like the pain and recovery are much much worse than ghe lapband but i also have heard several people say they had no pain at all
