Has anyone started a Vitamin routine yet? What are the Vitamins your taking?

Doing researching I've notice a lot of people don't take the same kinds of vitamins.

What is your surgeon recommending? My surgeon wants me to take a minimum of 1000mg calcium citrate, Iron, Biotin, B12, and a multiple.

I am so glad you ask this.

I was wondering too what kind and when people take their Vitamins.< /p>

I have read that certain vitamins need to be taken together and some apart.

I would love some feed back on how different ones daily schedule of viatmins, meals, fluids etc go.

It all seems so overwhelming of when to do what. I know the docs will tell you but how does it

work in the real world (lol) what have you found that helps you keep on track?

I take a Centrum multi chewable, Iron, Vitamin D and Biotin in the morning when I wake up. In the evening another centrum along with my Calcium. My B12 I take via shot and give it to myself once a month.

I take my multi Vitamin and chewable Iron together in the morning. then at lunch or in the evening (depends if I forget at lunch) I take my calcium citrate, B12 sublingual, hair, skln and nails Vitamin and magnesium. Dr only requires the B12, multi vitamin and the calicium, I added the rest. I was told to take the Iron and Calcium at seperate time.

I take my iron in the morning because I normally have fruit in my Protein shake and if I am correct taking iron with a Vitamin C or something like broccoli helps with the absorption of the iron. (at least that is what they told me when my kids were taking iron)

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
