I don't really know why I thought I could handle the large multi-vitamins. But I guess I had a momentary lapse... Anyway, for two mornings now, I have tried to take a rather large multi horsepill. And have experienced nausaeu, dry heaves, and lots of sliming. I cannot take them anymore. I was sick to death of the flavor of the chewable vits, and threw them out when I got these. I had one of my daughters Gummy bears the other day, and it got stuck, so I don't think the gummy vit's are the trick either. I was thinking a liquid Vitamin because this is ridiculous!

My question is, what kind of Vitamins do you take?

Thanks!

Did you have food in your stomach? I get really nauseas when I took them on an empty stomach. I take gummy vitamins now though, for some reason with the pill form I kept forgetting to take them.

I hadn't eaten anything when I took them, because I usually wait to eat at work, because 7:00 is just too early for me to eat. I can't do the gummies because they get stuck. I'm looking into some liquids.

Good morning,

I take gummies for my Vitamins and Calcium. They wont get stuck as long as you chew them really well. Honestly, I look forward to them everyday like a treat so I think its gonna be gummies from here on out.

I take Centrum chewables for adults, only need 1 a day, and they have an orange flavor. Sure there is still a vitaminy taste, but tolerable. I also have to take a Calcium supplement- viactive chewable. I can't even tolerate the smell of liquid Vitamin. I imagine if I tried to take liquid, I would vomit. Those large horse pill vits are probably too big for your pouch.

I couldn't stand the liquid vit so I did the chewable ones for a while. I just switched to the nature made gel tab vit. They.r large but they go down... I can't stand reg pill vit the smell makes me gag & dry heave. I did gummies before being banded but Im scared they'll get stuck now...

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      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!!
