Good Day All,
Getting really tired of the "mammoth sized multivitamins". It feels like I have rocks in my tummy! Any suggestions on a multivitamin that is easier to swallow or chewable?

You look fantastic!! I know your story all too well. I absolutely refused to let anyone take pictures of me. I hid behind that camera more than I can say. I hope some day that will be a thing of the...

Hi There,
I think we all experience different emotions prior to surgery. For me it was more anxiety than anything, second guessing my decisions. But I kept the main goal in focus. I wanted to lose...
Hi,
I am in the same boat! Had my surgery 9/28 and I am having a very hard time getting soft foods down. I try to eat small bites very slowly. It almost hurts going down. Yogurt, sugar free...
