Topic: I have a 3 year old. Now what???
I have my 3 year old nephew this week. What am I supposed to do with him?
What fun toddler friendly museums or activities can you guys reccomend?
I don't get to see him much, so I'd like to do something fun besides sit around and watch cartoons all day.

Topic: RE: Protein Drinks
You probably won't be up to vitamins for the first couple of weeks. Just concentrate on getting in the protein and water.
Your surgeon should give you a list of vitamins you will need. If he doesn't MAKE HIM!

Topic: RE: New to the GA boards-Introducing Myself
Thanks LaShelle and Sassy for the welcome! I'm excited and glad that I finally made this decision for myself! You both look amazing and I'm hoping to experience great results too.
Sassy, I will definitely take you up on that. So I'm in my preop diet phase with surgery right around the corner. Any thoughts, tips, suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Topic: RE: What Do I need For Surgery?
I took a suitcase full of things but didn't really use much at all. Most everything I needed was at the hospital. My period was scheduled to start during my hospital stay, and it did. I brought some pads from home but quickly went thru them. The pads they supplied were petite size (in the bariatric unit!) and I had to lay two end to end to have enough coverage.
Other things I packed and actually used:
Toothpaste/Toothbrush
Deodorant
Hair comb
Satin hair cap
Underwear
Lip balm
Good luck!

Nice photos. 119 pounds is wonderful and you should be very proud to have come so far.

Topic: RE: Protein Drinks
Thank you all for your advice! I am just waiting on a date at this point (approval from insurance and with it being Thanksgiving week, I think they are going a little slower!)
Do you know the "official" website to the nectar or any others than the vitalady one?? Ones where I can request samples from??
Another question - is do you all take multivitamins (im SURE you all do) just curious which ones you tolerate better after the surgery??
Again, thank you so much!
Oh - my surgeons are Dr. Duncan/Dr. Hobson with Atlanta Medical.
