Late June Sleeve Buddies?



Recommended Posts

Thank you for reminder I almost forgot my 2nd dose of multi.

I take

B12 I have a dissolve one from costco

b50 complex (which is only in capsule that you have to break and is disgusting so I only have to do every other day)

Multi I use Bari melts for one dose and flintstones for other. I hate them both

Calcium - I do chews because i had tablets and they are awful

Prevacid

Vitamin D

That is all of "required"

"Suggested"

Biotin

And finally because I am going to go down in history as the person that is using everything possible to fight potential Hair loss, many other non nutrition items in addition to the following:

collagen

Keratin

More biotin

Oh and for cholesterol from my pcp which I am continuing as cholesterol has been linked to gallstones, so can't hurt right?

Red rice yeast capsules

Hi everyone - I'm going to MIA for a little bit. I'm really sick and not sure what is going on. When I feel good I will check back in. Hold down the fort! ;)

Take good care of yourselves. xo

How do you get the injections of B12? Through your regular doctor? I'd love to do that, the b12 is the hardest pill I take every day

Feel better @@Maggie143

@@APanda911 for me, I would have to get B12 from PCP, but the B12 "melts" that dissolve in your mouth are pretty tasteless from costco

I also have a liquid B12 -- actually I have had 2 brands, both from Whole Foods one didn't taste great but the other tasted good and is (I think) available on Amazon it is Bluebonnet brand liquid B12. I can't remember the bad tasting one other than it has an orange label

My surgeon suggested it. They said you can't absorb b12 through your GI track after surgery so it must be taken sublingually, as a nasal spray or by injections. They told me no chewables. And I really didn't want to spray up my nose every morning lol.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
