I am now currently 6 years into the new life after WLS. I have reached goal and have went from a size 38 to 16 and a size 6X shirt to medium-large. I am still losing slowly and will continue to do so until I am into a size 12. LOVE the surgery and has given me new meaning to life.

I take Vit B12 two in the AM, Vit E 2 in the AM and every now and then when my iron gets low (have been diagnosed with anemia) a iron pill a day for 7 days. Other than that I get all the others from eating. I am a CNA and do not have the time to stop and take a bite here and there so I eat a really good meal at lunch and then when i get off I eat PB, grapes, ect ect. I was at a stand still for 3 years and have lost 20 since working and feel great. One thing I keep with me is what my doctor said "Only you know your body, when you feel it start taking it". I have kept that with me since I was diagnosed with anemia and UC. Have not had an attack of UC- Ulceritis colitis in 2 years.

Really? You only take B12, E & iron on occasion. How abou****er? How are you labs? What about D, K, A, calcium? How are your protein levels? PTH?

You said in your original post you got everything else from eating, but here you mention you have a "good meal at lunch" and then some PB, grapes, etc.  Not sure I get any of this.
