I didn’t know I could do chewables. I’ve seen people taking liquid supplements right after surgery and I asked the dr about it and he said we would discuss it right before surgery but I’m trying to be prepared. What did you take?

Who doing your surgery? You will be giving everything you need to know on the 5, my time schedule is the same as your. There is plenty of turkey and chicken bones around start saving them to make chicken broth you be sip on that for the next 2 weeks, propel Water, lemon or lime water, plenty of water and Protein Drink with very-very low sugar there a list they going to give you, it’s called a liver shrinking diet. This is to reduce the size of your liver. Follow it to the letter. We’re here waiting for the next journey.

My surgeons office sells Bariatric Advantage products at a discounted rate. So I used all their stuff

Bariatrac advantage chewables twice a day

Bariatrac advantage black cherry sublingual B12 once a day

Bariatrac advantage calcium citrate chewables 500mg twice a day

I don't use their Protein Powder because it's overpriced taste bad and makes me sick. But those 3 products are all tasty, easy to take, and designed specifically for bariatric patients.

I'm very happy and would recommend any of them, plus it's exactly what my surgeon prefers us using so it's a win win

      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.
