One year check up

Well its has also been a year for me...a few weeks ago actually. But last Monday I went for my check up. The news was good. All levels are great! B-12, Iron all good. She said keep on doing what I'm doing. So to share this is what I've been taking: 1 Bariatric Advantage Iron 29mg 2 BA multi 1 B complex - 1 E 400 mg 1 Omega-3 - flax seed oil 1000 mg C 4 BA calcium (1600 mg/day) They are requesting referral for plastics - but I not hopeful. Anyway - I hope everyone else is doing as well if not better! Heidi

Excellent Heidi! Were you anemic and that is why you started taking the BA iron? Does it upset your stomach or back you up?

I was low on iron. It doesn't bother my stomach. I noticed I'm not as cold as I was before taking the iron either. (this was before summer started too) I did have an issue this weekend but I think that was relate more to too much cheese than anything else. I'm back to my maintence plan of water, fiber and fruit. No cheese for a while.

Heidi Congradulations on a great visit with the doctor. What difference a year makes. good luck with the plastics. I know if I have any it will be on my own. Sorry I didnt get back to you sooner but was at camp . Enjoy the last month I have off before school starts Barb

Hey - Congrats on the great numbers~! I have a question for you - my surgeon has me on 2 BA calciums (wild cherry) Is there a reason to take 4? I'm curious and wanting to make sure I take enough... As for the question on iron - I take 3 BA passion fruit irons a day - surgeon said as long as i'm menstruating to take 3, after menop, i can go to 2... and i don't have any problems with constipation or anything...and it tastes good! Shock! heh. Thanks for info on calcium!
