A blessing from Bariatric Advantage!

Oct 22, 2010

In my quest to find ways to help pay for vitamins, I was referred to the "Recover Program," sponsored by Bariatric Advantage and the Obesity Action Coalition.  I filled out the paperwork, turned it in to Synergy, and crossed my fingers that I would be "accepted."  I got an email today that confirms shipment of my first 3-month supply of Bariatric Advantage multivitamins, sublingual B-12, Iron, and Calcium Citrate.  Cost to me - NOTHING!  I am so thankful that this program exists and they are able to help me get quality vitamins for after surgery.  I was concerned about the costs of these items, but I really wanted to make sure I was getting products that will meet my needs post-op.  Such a MAJOR relief - whey protein isolate shakes are still shockingly expensive in my opinion, but this help with the vitamins makes me feel so much better.  I will at least be getting all my necessary vitamins in, if nothing else!

Oh the life of grad school... I can't wait 'til someday when I'm not getting assistance and owing the gov't so much money in student loans... of course, considering that I am studying social work, I will probably always have school loans debt for as long as I live!
