I take all my vitamins daily and was thinking about adding magnesium. What kind should I buy and how much and when do I need to take this?
Thanks!

My surgery was Dec 21, 2016. I was told only cardio (low impact) at first. So far I've been doing this and just recently started jogging on the treadmill. Before my surgery I used to do weights and core workouts like Pilates. I don't see the surgeo

Hello everyone!! For those of you who use the patch do you get the calcium patch that comes with VitD3 plus the Vit D patch, or is the vitD in the calcium enough?
Thanks!!

hello everyone! I had surgery 2 weeks ago and so far everything is great and I've lost 12 pounds. I'm tracking everything I eat and drink and I know I have to aim for over 60 grams of protein but was wondering what my total calories intake should be.

This is day 3 on optifast and I haven't been able to get all 4 servings of optifast. Is it okay if I only have the 3 and my veggies, or should I force myself to have all 4?

Hello!!! okay, so I am on day 2 of Optifast and was wondering if it can be heated, make it a hot chocolate instead of a shake? Has anyone tried this?
Thanks in advance!
