Terrible About Vitamins

I've been so bad about the vitamins. I even bought all the good ones from Bariatric Advantage. I just cant stand the aftertaste. Anyone else have this problem?

My nutritionist says no to gummy Vitamins because they don't have as many vitamins in them as the others. There are a lot of nutrients missing or are lower in the dose.

I take daily 2 flintstones multi vitamins' date=' B12 subliguil, D3 and calcium. I'm having a hard time getting the calcium in though because of the wait. If I could take it in the morning with the others I'd remember but, I have to take 600 a few hours later and then another 600 2+ hours after that. I keep forgetting though.[/quote']

What kind of sublingual b12 do u take & where did u get it? Mine is called sun valley & i believe i got it at Walmart thing is it is gross.

Thank you so much i will definitely check it out!

I am having a really hard time with this surgery. I went back to my surgeon yesterday. I disclosed that I was taking gummy Vitamins. She said at this point something was better than nothing! Just to be careful chewing them. I go back Friday for an EGD to see if I have a stricture. This has been the hardest month of my life!

I had my surgery Aug 28,12.

So sorry to hear that ur having a hard time. It is hard but think about the outcome. You have to think positive. I'm home alone all day so I don't have much support. So what I did is bought me some index cards and wrote on them and taped them everywhere in my home. Some say things like: YOU CAN DO THIS, THIS IS MY NEW LIFE, GOOD JOB BABY,. I EVEN HAD MY HUSBAND AND SON WRITE SOME FOR ME. IT KEEPS ME GOING STRONG. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
