I'm scheduled for a VSG on 10/19 and I have a couple of questions.

1. How do I post my weight loss tracker from tickerfactory.com

2. Has anyone tried the Unjury products? I really want to know about the chicken Soup.< /p>

3. I work in the ICU, is 2.5 weeks off enough?

4. What about Vitamins? optisource, opurity, or prescription vitamins

Thanks in advance :)

I believe your doctor will give you that information or you should call the office. I am having my surgery Oct. 18 and my doctor said I didn't have to do anything...he just asked me to lose 5 lbs before surgery. You know if you can't lose your weight before it seems funny for them to ask you to do all the pre-op dieting stuff.

I went through the nutrition course and psychologist consultation in June. I was wondering about the Vitamins and supplements seen online.

Hi there, i enjoy the Bariatric Advantage products, they are really good for me. . I loved and still enjoy the chicken boullion cubes, you can get them with 1/2 the salt as well. . . 2 1/2 weeks is good. . . you will need the rest. . i took off that much time and was glad i did. . . . vitamins are good for you even if you don't have surgery. . . your not re routing your system like with the RNY but vitamins are good. . I still take my B12 sublingual (at walmart) Vitamin D (gummies and RX) Multivitamins (gummies). . . don't do gummies right away I just now started taking them (i'm 9 months out). . . I have a problem metabolizing Vitamin D so i have to take prescription D and a over the counter. . .you'll find how to put the ticker on if you check out vertical sleeve assistance closer to the bottom the forum page. . . good luck! your going to do great! :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
