Anyone else sick to death with taking all their Vitamins everyday? Just thinking of them makes me ill..

Almost 3 weeks post surgery..

Preach it! Im in the same boat. It all feels like a chore.

I am so tired of scheduling my crushed meds and Vitamins to coincide with Water and gall bladder meds (which taste like metal) with food. I don't regret the surgery but man this is tedious!

Can I have a pill that's in a capsule I'm one week out on Thursday. It tastes awful if I take it apart

I wouldn't. There is a liquid Vitamin I got from Walmart that got me through. Can't remember the brand. Sorry!

Hi all it's part of the trade off we have to do. If you don't get your micro nutrients then you will get sick..after a while it just becomes a second habit. Try varying different types of Vitamins until you dind what your comfortable with but what ever you do don't stop them.

Well said. You get used to it, like brushing your teeth or showering. It becomes part of your routine. It's for life. It's all in the attitude - think positive. I'm happy to take my Vitamins, fluids and Protein because it keeps me healthy and feeling good as I lose weight. It will keep me healthy and active in the future. I didn't go through all this to be sickly and feeling bad.

The only thing I don't care for is the Calcium. I buy several different flavors of the chewables and mix them all together. That way I don't get sick of one flavor.

This is what I take. It is four a day. They are chewables and taste good. Then I take my calcium citrate. I found them in a petite size so they are easy to swallow. I get them both at walgreens.

I used to take the optisource but they made me feel really sick and they tastes nasty to me. :-(

Shows how different tastes are. I like them. ;)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
