Hi, I love the idea of a face to face. I had my surgery approximately 8 months ago and could really use more support. It makes it so much easier on this journey when you can picture who you are chatting with on the web and makes it easier to chat freely when you make personal connections. I can meet pretty much any time and any place. Thank you so much for taking this on Karrie and if you need any help - let me know. See you on Saturday at Amante's in Kent.

What an exhausting and interesting day.

I will go to Vitalady from now on.

I went to several stores in the area. Most places didn't have what I needed and there was no savings either.

Super Supplements cost the most surprisingly (I thought they were supposed to be discount). Kent's Natural Market was the next highest. Minklers Green earth in Renton was the cheapest (even lower that Vitalady on some stuff). But running all over costs time and gas.

Vitalady has everything needed and prices that are pretty close to the cheapest I found.

From now on, I will just go to her and make it simpler.

One stop shopping. I goto vitalady in Puyallup. You can order online at vitalady.com or go and see them. I have problems with with the protein drinks as well, so I drink alot of muscle milk. I seem to like that.

Have any of you guys shopped around and found a good source? I am heading out to spend the day going from store to store (Natures Market in Kent, Super Supplements in REnton, Marlene's in Fed way etc..) ... wondering if you guys have already found a good location.

My doctor has a TON of supplements we are supposed to take.

I so far HATE all protein drinks that I have tried, all but one that was loaded with sugar, go figure. Really not looking forward to that, but I know the importance and there has to be one out there I can like.

I am taking a variety of vitiamins. Calcium, Iron, A, B complex, B-12, C, D-3, and a multivitamin. I drink alot of muscle milk, I cannot really stand the taste of protien powder drinks or the taste of the bullets.

Hi there,

What I use right now is the protein bullets that are 42 grams of protein and the premiere nutrition protein bars that are 30 grams of protein, I can get those at costco. But the bullets can be bought at gnc stores or bariatric eating website. But, I have just started in the last week taking one of each day and it has started to make feel better and I think I am losing weight again.

As for vitamins, I take a multi vitamin and becuase I am low, I have to take a vitamin D and Vitamin B complex vitamin.
