Hi Sweet Mammy:
B12:
I got a script from Dr. Floch for my B12 so I can get a shot once a month. You can also ask Danielle about this. This way, I have the liquid B12 that I can take to my nutritionist's office (in same office as my PCP) and get my shot there or when I visit FCB for my monthy appts. I find the B12 shots to work very well. Makes for less "daily" supplement intake and (I feel) is absorbed into the body better.
Calcium:
I use "LifeTime" Calcium Magnesium Citrate. It is a liquid calcium supplement that I got at Mrs. Green's in Fairfield. I prefer the strawberry flavor. It comes in many flavors and is easy to take by spoon or in some yogurt (which I do every night).
My suggestion (if you have not already done so) is consult with a Nutritionist.
I see Nancy Murphy in Fairfield. She is top notch.
She can advise you on what you will need for supplementation and also guide you through the stages. I have found her to be of immearsurable assistance as I progress with my weight loss.
CONGRATS on your making it to the status of POST-op patient !
Take care...
I am only an email away if you have any questions.
