Anemia and I found out today for my clearance for surgery but my Dr say I may still be able to have it... Normal blood is like a 13 and I'm at a 9 so I will be taking Iron pills twice a day up until the so call day of surgery.

i thought that you might be interested in knowing that most ppl are deficient in Vitamins. in fact there is a lot of good research and a dr won the nobel peace price for his work with vitamine c and all the diseases that it "cures" his opinion is that all disease in the body is from a lack of viat\mines in the diet.

im a vitamine taker so i personally don't see any big deal with it becasue i already take megga Vitamins.< /p>

5000 mg vit c

condrotien and glocosamine MSM 1500mg

b-12

co-q 10 200mg

estroven

l-lysene 2500 mg

i did think your vitamins were ingested through your intestines ( guess i kind of assumed?) but you said it's through the stomach?

point me to your vitamine research i'm interested in knowing what the post sleevers are defiecent in :)

thanks

good luck you are gonna be fine :)

Nolagirl...you've got me mixed up with someone else...I didn't say that.

Saw the surgeon yesterday...I have a head cold now...sinuses all blocked up. He said as long as I don't get a fever, it won't affect my surgery. I just hate feeling blah like this...not breathing well and having the surgery. Praying that I'll feel better by Monday.

Nola, I was the one who wrote that, and im so sorry if my rant! Got you confused, you can find anything n anything on YouTube! Lol that will get you canceled your surgery, a lot of crazy things, But im not allowing myself to go to YouTube anymore...

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
