Your vitamins

[w8loss4me 15]

Last Dec 2011 I had my sleeve surgery. So far, I've lost 100 pounds. And I feel great about that part. However, when I did my yearly labs, the results weren't so great in regards to what I was deficient in. It was a lot. And that's because I lacked taking my Vitamins on a consistent basis.

As the nurse told me -the labs don't lie.

My question is this: for those of you who are one year or more post surgery - how good are you at taking your vitamins/minerals?

The nurse made me feel scared that if I don't start being consistent with taking the Vitamins that I will have long term issues in the future.

Do you all agree and if so how do you push yourselves to take ALL those darn vitamins?

Thanks in advance for your advice!

This is a lifetime commitment. Including taking your Vitamins for life....you can't get enough nutrients thru your food anymore so you MUST be diligent about your vitamins. It would be terrible to go thru all this to get healthier only to get sick cause you were malnourished. Good luck....get back on your vitamins!

Yes, I do agree. Vitamin and nutrient deficiencies can lead to a myriad of health problems. If you have a smartphone check for pillminder apps. I use Pillboxie and yes, it's a struggle to get my supplements in every single day... especially if I have nausea, acid reflux issues, etc. For your health, do try to make it a priority. Good luck!
