Out 5 weeks-down 50 Lbs. Started really exercising. (At least for me) walking in the morning and Zumba at night. Waking up to snap, crackle and pop. My joints are so loud. I continue to crack and pop all day and usually get the cracking worked out by the night time Zumba class. I'm taking all of my Vitamins including some extra Biotin at 5000mc. Any other thoughts that I can add to my diet or do, the cracking is almost painful but can be heard by a all.

Yesterday after being in the gym for a month and a half and increasing my weights rapidly and strengthening, I thought it was time to hit the leg day, I noticed and remembered quickly part of the reason for my gastric, as I was doing squat machine my left knee be an to "crackle and pop" it was my arthritis, scarring, and permanently torn ACL telling me to chill out, I know I need that surgery next but the knees thingy scares me to death, lots of pain and rehab, and always a chance it could continue to hurt, I would suggest investing in knee braces, good ones

Have you tried taking Osteo Bi-Flex? My knees and hips like to pop and when I regularly take Osteo I notice that my joints do sincerely feel a lot better.

I have taken Celebrex, but my knee doctor said it best "you impaled your left knee with a branch wen you were young, and almost ripped out your right knee with glass, and you shot your ACL twice, you have massive bone fragments and scarring, you sir need new knees" so I got that going for me, in the words of Bill Murray lol

My knees crackle and pop a lot especially after exercising when I run. I am given Calcium tablets for my bones by my doctor. Maybe you might need a bone supplement.

Good luck.

      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.
