nikarjc 6 Posted January 13, 2013 Oh boy' date=' it has been a long trip and I am now less than 24 hours away from surgery. I started this 5 years ago before getting laid off and losing my insurance mid process. Started again about a year ago. I am 46, mother of 3, grandmother of one and been on a diet since I was 12! I am 5'11" and started at 313. I am at 275 now.I am worried about my downtime, my husband travels and my kids are BUSY!!! He will be home my first week, but then he has to go back to work. How long before you can drive? Thanks for all the information I have read in the last few months! [/quote'] wow I love this story I have 9 days left and its getting so real. Im glad you stuck with it.... Good luck tomorrow sure youll do great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
one4ozzie 434 Posted January 13, 2013 Vitamin question: where do u buy ur Vitamins from? And what exactly do you take. I bought a 3 month supply from Celebrate.< /p> A Multivitamin (chewable) Calcium plus (has the D vitamins) Biotin calcium citrate chews And I think B50 Biotin 10,000mcg at Walmart Wellesse - liquid calcium citrate n D (orange flavor easy to take) Multi Vitamin - Centrum has a chewable or you can do the children's complete (2 times a day) Ask your Dr before taking B vitamins, unless u currently take them and he's aware. Then ask when to start the B back up. All are at Walmart. Gen :-) 12/15/12 1 ready2smile reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nikarjc 6 Posted January 13, 2013 Try the Lean Drink from GNC. You may like better than Muscle Milk Light. I drank the already made shakes' date=' but comes in powder form. If you don't like it GNC takes back and will refund 100%.[/quote'] o cool thanls for the advice!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
