Had 1st visit

[betterme38 275]

So today my hubby n I went to my initial consult 1st official visit!! So excited and ready to do this. I have to start taking my blood pressure meds again cause with them being prescribed n me not taking them it makes me look non compliant so to speak which isn't good.

I have my 1st NUT class the 22nd of Dec and my Psyc eval earlier that same day. All in all it was a good day, they did say for me not to gain that I don't have to lose bit try n definitely not gain.

Anyway, excited to get this started, 6 months n 6 classes left I think lol. Oh n I have to do a support group also.

good luck to you on this journey!! are you doing sleeve or bypass. I had the sleeve, feel free to ask me any questions

[betterme38 275]

Sleeve is what I'm gonna do, I don't wanna be on all them vitamins/meds for life. The sleeve just seems like the best option for me.

How long ago did you have this done?

[Mania 128]

Even with the sleeve you are going to be on Vitamins for the rest of your life.

Please continue to research. Even with the sleeve you need Vitamins for life. Routine bloodwork is key to monitoring your nutritional levels.

@ and @@BLERDgirl, Yes, that was my fault as they did ask me if I took a Multivitamin already. Was excited and yes I have more research to do. Thank you both for pointing that out to me.
