Vitamin questions and other stuff!
Hey everybody! I know there are tons of posts about Vitamins, but I can seem to find exactly what I'm looking for.
Right now I'm in the pre-op diet and taking 3 Bariatric Fusion Chewables a day and a 5000 I.U. Vitamin D. I really don't want to take a ton of extra vitamins but I would like to add a couple. The ones I am thinking about are Fish Oil for the healthy fat****ein for skin elasticity, and Biotin for hair loss/growth.
Ok, so my first question is are there other vitamins that you guys think are a must or have helped with anything? Do you find that the vitamins I've mentioned are helpful?
Also, Do you have difficulty taking pills once you are sleeved? I hear that some people do and some don't. Do you need a pill cutter? The fish oils are liquid capsules, will they digest well?
Do you know where I can get them for a good price? I tend to buy a lot of things on amazon, but I really don't want to overpay if these are things I'm going to be taking for a long long time.
Ok, other stuff. I have read a lot of posts and watched quite a few videos on this, but what are your "must have" items that make life with the sleeve easier?
Here are things I currently have:
A full sized blender
Two blender bottles for shakes
A new scale that will keep track of my progress to goal weight.
A couple of water bottles.
Body measuring tape
Food scale (it doesn't have a bowl attached though)
Things I plan to buy:
Toddler utensils
Small plates
Things I'm not sure if I should/need to buy (need your opinions!)
Magic Bullet or some other small blender
Food processor
Toddler sippy cup with stopper
Anything else? I just want to make sure I'm 100 percent ready for all of this! Surgery is a week from tomorrow! Yay! Thanks!
