are you taking vitamins NOW?



Recommended Posts

What Vitamins are in your daily routine? It was suggested at my seminar (both actually, I went to 2 different doctors at 2 different hospitals) that I start multi Vitamin, Calcium and/or D3. I already had the multi Vitamin, I brought a Calcium with D3 in it only to discover it was the wrong calcium. I just got in from the store they had a bogo (buy 1 get 1) so I got the D3 and also some Biotin (need my hair to grow!) So once I get clarification on which calcium I should be taking (I thought calcium was calcium) I'll go out and get that too.

I thought the reason for our bands was to take us off of our pills? I seem to have picked up 2 more...lol...j/k, I know these are diffrent...

I was told chewable vitamins, and viactiv for the Calcium (I got milk chocolate...its ok, but very sweet). Dont take the vit with the calcium as the Vitamin prevents the absorbtion of the calcium. I wasn't told about the others you are taking. :)

I take: multi with Iron (I use one-a-day sours), D3 5,000 IU, calcium citrate with D, Biotin, B1, B12, coq10, Iron, Cinnamon, Ranitidine (like Zantac), birth control, and Ceterizine Hydrochloride (allergy).

All of those are required except Cinnamon, birth control, and Ceterizine Hydrochloride.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
