Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
I went for my first post-op doc visit today. All went well and my doc is extremly happy so far and so am I.
We talked a little about vitamin supplements and how to introduce them into my diet. He handed me a piece of paper and said to go to this site and check it out.

They carry a complete line of products specifically designed for Bariatric patients and those having or have had GBS or Lap Band procedures. Chewable vitamins (Multi, Calcium, Iron, B-12 etc.), Protein supplements including powders and meal replacements, and tons of books all having to do with Gastric Bypass Surgery.
I hope this helps some of you like it did me. I've already placed my order :-)

I just thought I'd drop this note. I get almost everything from Wal-Mart. Chewable Vitamins, Chewable Calcium Citrate, Whey Protein Powder. For me, It was just a more affordable way of doing it and recommended by my nutricianist also. Chewable Iron is definately the hard one to find that I could get from bariatric advantage.
