my nutritionist told me to take 2 of the kids flintstones chewables! also to take B12 and calcium citrate (so no viactiv). I'm looking for chewable b12 and Calcium right now...

You probably won't find chewable B12. You need to look for sublingal ones.

I take the Centrum chewables and 3 Calcium with D every day.

1st the Centrum and then I take the calcium mid-morning,mid-afternoon and in the evening. Everything is chewable.< /p>

Check out a cookbook called "The Sneaky Chef". I originally bought it to sneak veggies into my kids everyday meals and found that it has also been beneficial for me. Good luck!

you can also try juicing, or smoothies with veggies added--

lots of times, I chop veggies pretty small in a chopper before cooking, that helps me a lot

I take Centrum chewable, and I also take Viactive. My hair thinned noticably about 4 or 5 months after surgery. I think it's finally stopped-- I'm a little over a year out! I guess it's normal. The anethesia, plus the shock to your body of much less calories, etc. suddenly. Protein seemed to help-- sometimes if I wasn't getting enough, I'd add in a Protein shake for that day. Also, I have a whole bunch of new Hair growth now. Most of my hair seems to be coming back. So don't worry too much-- it'll come back!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
