I just do 2 Flintstones complete daily this is what my surgeon recommended. I get a monthly B12 shot and I don't start Calcium until my next appointment in February.

I take the bariactric advantage multi Vitamin and bariactric calcium citrate chocolate chew from surgeons office

Then I take a 5000 mg Biotin started this a month before surgery

5000 mg B12 under the tongue

The surgeon also said to take the Iron with Vitamin C but I was told since I don't have periods i didn't need to take Iron from my Gyn. So not going to spend money on iron if I don't need it. I eat alot of green veggies. And I don't like that my poop is black from the iron. Doesn't look normal. If and when I have another blood test to see if I am getting all I need and they say I am low on iron and anemic then I will take the Iron but not till then.

Bariatric fusion. chewables. I take four a day. This brand was recommended by my surgeons office as it includes everything we need. They aren't too bad. I like wild cherry.

I also take Bariatric fusion chewables 4 per day, and that's it. Tropical is not bad either.

I take a Bariatric chewable that you take once a day!! It's from ProCare Health and it's $10 a bottle for 30 pills. I usually just swallow it whole. I'm not much on chewing Vitamins. I also take Biotin, Vit C and Calcium. Plus I get an Injection of B-12 monthly.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
