Post-Op Vitamins & Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

Per my surgeon and NUT I should be taking Calcium, a Mutli-Vitamin and B12. My surgeon says that it takes close to two years to become B12 deficient. But B12 is obviously great for energy. I am pretty sure my program recomends 2000 B12 over the course of a week and 1000 Calcium in a day.

What is everybody else doing?

i have been taking Bariactric fusion chew-able Vitamins. taste is not bad at all and there is no chalkiness or after taste. i also had blood work done last week and everything came back normal so i would say that they definitely work .

How many are you taking a day. The nice part about this one seems that it has both Calcium and B12 in the multi-Vitamin. Right now I take three different supplements (Multi, B12, Calcium)

i take 3 or 4 daily. it suggest 4 per day for bypass patients , 3 per day for sleeve patients and 2 per day for band patients.

i like it because its a one stop shop for all the essential Vitamins i need, no need for a cabinet of vitamins when i take this. price aint bad either for what you get.

Without my B12 shots I woudn't be able to get out of bed most days. The Multivitamin I take to feel better. I use to take a nasty liquid one, so I switched to flinstons gummies. Its like a treat. Don't stick with nasty Vitamin. You can find decent ones out there.

I just ordered a bottle of Bariatric fusion and comparing the B12 Im getting with what is recommended, I am clearly not getting enough. Until it comes I'm gonna up my dose of the current B12 sublingual I have.

Thanks all!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
