I would think this could be a side affect. That and other malnutrition issues. You aren't taking in enough of those nutrient and need to get them from Vitamins. I don't think I would even consider not taking them.

I bought extras so I'd have Vitamins at home and at work.

It could lead to irreversible neurological damage as stated in my handbook

There are bunches of potential repercussions to not taking your vitamins: Hair loss, bone thinning or softening, tooth loss, neurological damage and various kinds of anemias which can result in organ damage. At least we are not at as big of a risk as the RNY folks. But as for me, I am going to take my Vitamins.< /p>

Hey what Vitamins was everyone told to take? I was told a multi, a Vitamin C and 2 Calcium w/ vit D. All at different times of the day.

      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! 😞
