New Member Saying Hello to All!
just wanted to take a moment and say hello to everyone.....My name is Krista and I am new to the site and the group. I just had surgery a week ago today (10/26/2010) I am looking for any information that you feel like sharing... its always better to hearstories from others that have been there... today I feel like I am not in the mood to eat is this normal? also does anyone know a few suggestions for the calcium citrate...i purchased the lozenges and man they are huge and I sweari cant take them anymore they are gross. I am currently using all bariatic advantage products but they are chalky tasting and I need to switch
Welcome krista! Congrats on your recent surgery and arrival to the losers bench.
You are so right those lozengers are awful. AND I do not like that brand of vitamins either.
I use www.bbvitamins.com They taste wayyyyyyy better and are much more manageable and I think cost a little less even. They are top notch bariatric vitamins and if you ask they will send you free samples.
It is very normal at your stage, and for a while yet to lose interest in food. But it is important to follow the eating plan and eat what you should be. So please do your best to get in a bit at each scheduled meal. The day will come that your appetite returns, and that is kind of a scarey day for many.
Ask any other questions you may have. We are here to help.
Again welcome!
Hugs!
