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.

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
