Congrats on your upcoming surgery. My surgeon recommended the chewable Bariatric Advantage multi-vitamins to begin with. You chew 2 a day and they are rather large so in the beginning I really had to space them out - I usually have one about 10 am and another about 3 pm. I ordered a 2 month supply to begin with. I like them - they taste kind of like Flintstone Vitamins.

I would perhaps start out with a 30 day supply just to see how they work for you.

My nutritionist told me to wait on the Patches till there is more research. She joked since we take Vitamins the rest of our lives there will be many advances. I currently have barimelts for B12, Vitamin D, Biotin and Calcium. I still taking a capsule for my multi Vitamin but purchased powder I can add to Water while I'm on liquids and puree.

I got the Patches esp after the surgery pre eating phase, worth it for piece of mind. Looking back I would not be able to have eaten much for the first month, so it was a good fit , better than taking nothing.

I use the Patches.

B-12

Biotin plus

vit D and Calcium

and Multivitamin

i haven't had my bloods done yet since my surgery was only last week, but the PA at my first post op visit said her patients who use them have all had good levels.

I went directly to PatchMD.com and Got a discount for 40% off if I auto-shipped when I received my first order it was a great price

if I can find the code I'll post it

I think it was spring40

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
