What vitamins are essential after gastric sleeve surgery? And whats a good protein intake. My doctor told me not to worry about protein just fluid intake. I want to get use to getting the right amount of protein I start pureed diet on wenesday. Im 7 days out.

My doc said just to take Multivitamin, 1000mg sublingual B-12, and 1000mg of calcium citrate a day. I don't believe we lose the ability to absorb Vitamins and minerals from food the way Gastric Bypass patients do.

I didn't start the vitamins until I was back on solid food, so I've never tried anything like the gummy vitamins. I've always taken tablets or pill form.
