I bought a huge bottle of Celebrate and regret it. I can't tolerate the taste and am working with the company to return/exchange. My fault totally. Had a sample, thought it wasn't bad and bought 180 to save $. If I can return them, I think I'll just get Flintstones complete.

We have to take the Bariatric Advantage Vitamins that the doctor's office sells. They are gigantic capsules and you have to take one capsule 3 times per day. I just started on those today (Day 7).

I do take separate Vitamins as I can't swallow big pills (even before the surgery I will gag with the prenatal when I was pregnant). I am taking a Multivitamin from walgreens that the nurse practitioner at my Dr's office recommend me, they are super tiny and easy to swallow. I have a B12 that is sublingual and tastes like cherry, I take d3, and recently got a liquid Calcium. I was taking citracal petite, but they were still huge for me. I tried the Flintstone and the Celebrate Multivitamin and didn't like the chalky taste/feeling.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
