I'm 5 weeks out as well. I have an Iron supplement, some B complex liquid, and a Gummy multi Vitamin. I've been taking the gummies since week 3. No problems.

They actually taste pretty much like any Gummy candy. fruit flavor. Not bad at all.

I'd compare the gummies to your multi chewable because they may not have as many Vitamins and minerals as the chewable. All the ones I compared didn't. I use Centrum Multi Orange Chewable, got it from Target.

I take 4 children's gummies, a multi, an Iron supplement, Vitamin A, Vitamin D and B12 injections (once a week).

I'm 5 weeks post-op & I was taking Bariatric Advantage mulit-vitamin and it made me sick and nauseated every time and tasted like I was eating chalk...ugh! I recently tried "Nature Made Mulit for her" (Wal-Mart) it has all the Vitamins and minerals suggested by my Nut (Zinc, Folic Acid, Selenium, & Copper). They are softgels and they went down just fine. Good luck on finding the right one.

When does your surgeon say you can start on pills? I go for my 2 week post op appt today and I will be asking him because I can't stomach them anymore! I'm hoping now, I heard 2-3 weeks post op but I'll see.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
