Up until now, I have been purchasing my calcium citrate chewables from the Bariatric Vitamin folks. Does anyone know if Wal-Mart, Target, or any other place sells this product? Thanks,
Many vitamins are unhealthy in high amounts. B12 in excess is actually associated with the development of many cancers. You need to tell your doctor how much you were eating and work with her. It's still good to be screened for leukemia and other issues to rule them out. Good luck with everything :)
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

I had RNY in 2003, I had a LAST SUPPER...I still remember what I chose...lol Delmonico steak, mashed potato and broccoli.I did not go crazy though ;)
I personally did not, but I could understand people doing it. I didnt really change too much ahead of starting my preop diet. I didnt cut back, nor did I splurge.
I actually cut all my alcohol out for a few weeks before my preop diet started, and I also started my preop diet earlier than necessary.
Fortunately, mine was just 4 shakes a day + 1 lean protein meal w/ veggies... I didnt have a liquid preop. If I did, I probably would have had a feast lol

Did any of you go a bit crazy before you started your pre-op diet? I feel like I am having a "last supper" of sorts... Pre-op liquid phase starts tomorrow.
My tastes changed drastically after surgery, so finding drinks to choke down was a challenge. The chocolate premier drinks and my chai tea latte k-cups (added genepro protein powder) were the only things I could tolerate. Everything else was too sweet, even crystal lite packets. My only advice is to keep experimenting and do not buy in bulk. Eventually, by a process of elimination, you will find things that work for you. It's hard though. Good luck!

Thank you mmmesser. I think I may have misunderstood him, but I'll ask again Monday after surgery. I think like most have said it's only temporary until I heal.
Thank you, Cindy. This is good feedback and I appreciate it. Good luck to you, too!!!
