I'm tired of my chewable vitamins. I take other medicines that are large pills so I think I am ready to switch from chewable to a regular multi Vitamin capsule.
Does anyone have a good recommendation for a 1-a day multi for a man?
Thank you!

1 hour ago, Jobber said:Are there certain foods that are making this happen? Do you journal so you can try and correlate the type of food with the issues? I am 4 months post op and I finished my Pantoprazole a month ago and haven't had any issues, but then again, I'm eating so much better now than I had presurgery. Just curious if you have notices if there's specific things that set you off.
Thanks. Heartburn seems to have started once I stopped taking the Pantoprazole. So now I don't know if its just been masking my heartburn all along or if its something else. I haven't started eating anything differently than what I've been eating ever since the operation.

Pre-surgery I was prescribed Pantoprazole by the gastroenterologist who did my endoscopy. I kept taking it through surgery and recovery. (I'm not almost 4 months post-op)
Anyhow, even though I was still mindlessly taking the Pantoprazole, I assumed my heartburn had gone away because now I eat nothing compared to what I ate pre-surgery. But once my Pantoprazole ran out, I started getting heartburn again like the old days.Anyone else experience this? Will I have to take Pantoprazole for the rest of my life?
I understand why I had frequent heartburn when I was 400 pounds and ate everything that wasn't nailed down but I'm confused about why I still have heartburn now post-op.
Any advice is really appreciated. Thank you! -
I am just over 1 month post-op gastric sleeve. I was at 399 the day of surgery. I'm now down to 259 or so. Lost about 40 pounds.
I know that's good -- its only been a month -- but I am getting very impatient. Compared to what I used to eat before surgery, I eat like a mouse now.
I feel like I should have lost 100 lbs by now. Has anyone else dealt with this?
Also, is there a way to prevent from getting too much loose skin? I don't want to wait until I've lost 100 lbs. to worry about it.
Thanks so much. This forum is a great resource!ARMoma45 reacted to this -

Hi everyone!
I'm a little over 1 month post-op gastric sleeve. Lost around 40 lbs so far. I was 399 before surgery.Haven't had any trouble with foods or swallowing thus far.
Here's my question:
I would really like to take a regular capsule Multivitamin. Is that OK or do I need to continue with the chewable? Taking a chewable makes me feel like a kid and I feel like all the Vitamins just get stuck in my teeth - LOL.
Thanks for any advice!
