I admit I did have one of my favorite meals a few days before I started the liquids....to be honest I am so glad I did! I am one week postop at this point.

My surgeon told me to hold off except for Protonix....about 4 days after surgery I was able to take my chewable Vitamin, then I was told to wait til follow up at 3 weeks to discuss the rest of the Vitamins. I admit I was a bit nervous to swallow the first time after surgery but my nurse stayed with me to make sure I was ok.

What chewable Vitamin did u get is it good??

I was given Cenrtrum chewy Vitamins from the hospital (I'm one week after surgery). Easy to suck and I guess they're o.k if the hospital prescribed.

I bought the Bariatric Advantage French vanilla, it is kinda chalky but breaks down easy. The first few days I actually cut it into 4 pieces and took it at different times. I have heard that the chewy ones are better but my weight loss clinic was out when I went to purchase them.

      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.
