Hi I'm wondering how the vitamins and supplements will cost me a month and what i will be needing? I know that's a silly question because the surgery does the job and that shouldn't be a factor but i want to make sure I can afford the surgery after care before I have the surgery. I am a vsg and all of the vitamins and stuff that I needed post op I only needed for the first year then the doc said I didn't need to take them any more. I was on vitamin D, folic acid, and B12. I haven't needed a protein shake in more than a year. Not that I mind those. I saw one of the other posts where the person was saying 35,000 dollars a year on this stuff.. I dont' even make that much a year. Is this realistic? Please let me know asap... oh by the way I'm new here, has vsg in 2013 when originally I wanted DS. Only lost about 40 of my 120 lbs to lose. I'm still sick with high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and possibly prediabetic. I stopped loosing weight at about 5 months out and no matter what i did or didn't do I couldn't lose so I gave up. I still have restriction just can't lose. What are some other things you can tell me about the surgery? I have researched the heck out of it but it was all technical. i want to hear from people who have actually had it and OH ppl don't seem to be honest they seem to sugar coat it. Maybe I'm wrong I'm not sure but want to hear from you guys if I could. Thanks.
