What type of Vitamins are your doctors making you take?

Anyone have to take a prenatal pill?

A big handful, that's for sure. Multivitamin, D, B12, b complex, c, Calcium, Omega 3 and 6. Took them faithfully for 6 months and blood work came out well. I am continuing to take the same cocktail daily.

Yup, we all do when taking PPI because Calcium carbonate will not absorb so well.

I take daily centerium chewable Multi vitimans and calcium chews. Monday, Wednesday and Friday I take B12 sub lingual, B1. The hardest for me is the Multi vitiman. For some reason the Multi vitiman makes me feel a bit of nausea.

You might try TJ High Potency adult chewable tablets. These are good tasting and had no trouble eating these when other multi caused nausea (tried Bariatric Advantage and Celebrate). If you eat 2 daily you get about 200% DV of everything. As said above labs were really good at 6 months.

Also I have found Bariatric Advantage chewable citrates to be really good. I order caramel flavor from Amazon every 10 days or so to fulfill 6 chews a day where each chew is 250 mg Calcium. Works really well to take 2 of these an hour before eating 3 of your daily meals.

Ditto what ^ fiddle said. They taste pretty good, also.

      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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
