Deemar007 244 Posted November 27, 2017 Oh gosh! I love the idea! However, we were told in class that there is no proof, or not enough proof anyway that these actually would be absorbed through our skin. everything in me screams, WELL WHY NOT?? But since I am not educated enough on the Patches, I made the decision to listen to the Doctor and RDs in my bariatric group.

Cynrey 16 Posted November 27, 2017 I am scheduled for surgery Dec 6th, so I have been busy buying all of my "supplies". I actually asked my NUT about the Patches before I bought my multi Vitamin and she said the patches were fine to use. I guess every program is different. 2 Deemar007 and Marcy13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fruitandveggies 456 Posted November 27, 2017 I've heard from a couple of different doctors that they aren't effective if you're over 185 pounds. It's really just an "insurance policy" as my NUT puts it, so they would probably be fine since you'll eventually get that weight probably. 2 Cynrey and Marcy13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
