I have this pretty crystal coaster that I put all my vitamins on that I take at home. I take my multi and Iron before 6 am. Then at work I put the calcium out (8 pills). I take the calcium every two hours (8,10,12,2) I finish the ones at home I try and finish that before bed. It seems to help me to look at them on my counter of what I have left to take. I've been pretty good. I'll miss one here or there but most days I'm good.

Highest: 290 Surgery: 265 Today: 199 Total of 91 pounds - 66 since surgery.

Here's what I'm taking: GNC Women's Ultra Mega Multi-Vit; one serving size in the am and pm Citracal Calium Citrate (500mg+D); one serving size in mid-morning and mid-evening B-12 5000mcg sublingual; one serving every Friday Yes, you should be taking Citrate. Our new rearranged innards don't absorb carbonate very well. It also doesn't absorb B-12 very well, so taking a sublingual B-12 (or getting a monthly shot) helps our body absorb it like it should. I have read "Before and After" too. I haven't read it since before surgery. Maybe I should dust it off and read it again. I have a couple of WLS books, kinda thinking it wouldn't hurt to reread them all I guess. Welcome back to the board! Andi

maybe this will scare that pound off ya?! Congrats on your success! I know what you mean about getting out of the house now, it is great!! "1 lb" for Carla! Andi

Ah Monica, like I said to Jessica; these stalls are FRUSTRATING. But that is all they are, stalls. They will end and the lose will begin again. Don't give up! Look how much you have accomplished already? You are doing great! If you haven't done your measurements lately, whip out that measuring tape. While we are in our stalls more than likely we are still losing inches. ((HUGS)) Andi
