Hi, I am almost 3 months out and I have lost 50 lbs, with that many more to lose. I would like to know where is the best place to buy the Vitamins and Protein Powder at the best prices? Thanks!

I go to Costco!!! Vitamins are definitely cheaper and you get double the size. I buy my Protein shakes from Amazon.com or bodybuilding.com. both are very reasonable.

I buy my Vitamins at costco as well. I also bought chocolate flavored whey Protein. In the big inning I mixed it with soy milk but I find that now I can tolerate 2% milk so I use that.

Prenatal Vitamins are free at Meijers ( if u take them instead of 2 Flintstones) we had the choice of either.. I like Vitamin shops calcium citrate wafers 1000mg each... Favorite Protein I like is Lean shakes from GNC or there Quest Protein Bars

I use Syntha-6 Protein shakes (vanilla ice cream and chocolate cake batter. I just found out today that I have to buy sugar free Protein Shakes, so I need to buy the premier (ready made) that they sell at costco. They r delicious and she said that's the best way to get my 80-100 grams of Protein each day.

Thanks everyone I'm using smoothie kings gladiator right now, it's really good but expensive. I will try some of these suggestions.

Anyone get liquid multivitamins ?

I tried them, and thought them disgusting. I take the Celebrate Multicomplete chewable. It's yummy! Orange is my favorite.

I tried various brands like Bariatric Advantage, Flintstones, Centrum etc but they were all useless. They chewables made me nauseous (because of the fillers in them) and the sugar content in the gummies were a major concern for weight gain. I then switched to capsules and finally on my nuts advise I settled for Vita4Life. It’s been three years and no complaints. I get all their products off the website. You can get the products off Amazon too.

        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
