I picked up RenewLife Probiotic 30billion cfu, calcium citrate chewables (generic Walmart brand), NatureMade Fast dissolve B12, and I still need to pick up a chewable Multivitamin. I also have Vitamin D 50000 units a week i am on as well.

Hey I just replied and lost my whole post to the" cloud", some days i don't think I'll ever be electronically literate. Hokay--- here it goes again.As a future RnY with an inquiring mind where are most,of you getting your Vitamins? Doctor's office,m.o., health food store, grocery store, big box store or doubling up on what you have on hand already? As an Upper Age, I prefer that to Senior or GoldenAger, person who's on a tight Social Security budget, I want the best bang for my buck but also the most effective. What do YOUR Vitamins cost monthly? Thank you all in advance.

I actually went to Celebrate.com and order the sample pack. It’s 10$ I believe. Free shipping. I got it within 2 days. And it’s gave me some of everything they sell to go over with my doc and see what flavors I like and what not. When if you RNY?

I ordered a 90 day supply for 40$.

If you contact your surgeons office they can probably recommend a source for you.

I take Bariatric Fusion. I like them a lot. My surgeons office said for many people this is all you need to take. However, I do take supplemental Biotin and Vitamin d/calcium pills. The biotin is from BariMelts. The Vitamin D is a chewable from Caltrate. This is only because my Vitamin D was in the toilet pre op and because I don't want to loose my hair (even though, its probably inevitable). Bariatric fusion is also fairly cheap. I have to take 4 per day with RNY and 1 bottle lasts 30 days, at $27.99.

I have to take chewables so I chose opurity Bypass and Sleeve optimized chewables. They are once per day plus I have to take 1 calcium citrate at night. Only $30 for a 90 day supply direct from the Unjury site.

      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.
