It needs to be sublingual B12 at this point' date=' and you also need to assess your food intake. You are early out and not getting enough Protein which means your body is not healing properly. You mentioned not enough calories....how many shy are you? You really have to concentrate on Protein, calories and liquids early out of the box or your body won't heal and you'll be tired constantly, no matter how much b12 you take.

And I sound like a lecturing fool....but honey I give myself that same lecture every day. I also was trying to avoid the shakes but finally after several weeks of being shy of my protein goal I have decided to add one a day to my routine so that I make goal (I'm in a stall as well). When I am able to eat more food due to less restriction I will cut the shakes back out, but they are a necessary evil for some of us....[/quote']

Great info. Will be upping my protein today!

Any suggested amount of B12 to take? On my way to Walgreens!

Subliminal is the way to go. I currently take the b12 from Celebrate. The tabs dissolve in about 5 seconds and have a good cherry taste.

      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.
