    I would say up your vitamins for sure! Make sure your getting the essentials, and try to eat something just anything at all- but something healthy- watch sugars and carbs.

    You may want to go online to see if it's covered. My Bcbs had it on the "preferred drug list" but won't cover it because it isn't on the "formulary". I am a candidate for the bariatric surgery-would they rather pay that? I don't get it.....
