One month post op and my Nut/surgeon advised me to begin taking in all my Vitamins as of today. Wondering if everyone has the same orders for Vitamins as I do. Here are mine:

Daily Multivitamin. (I'm taking the Centrum Flavor Burst chewables. They taste like skittles to me)

Calcium plus Vitamin D. 1200-1500 mg per day. (I'm taking Carmel flavored chewables from The Vitamin Shoppe)

B-Complex with 100 mg of Thiamin (B1) 1 teaspoon per day. (I'm taking a liquid form of this and it taste Nasty, Hortible, Gross) I think I will have to mix this with juice in order for me to get this in.

B-12 1000 mcg sublingually once a week.

Wondering what type of vitamins does everyone else has to take?

My nut/surgeon like the powder Vitamins that are mixed in Water. They are called Isotonix. I tolerate them well. I take a Multivitamin and a b-complex.

I take GNC ultra mega Vitamins. I would advise you to read the label of those Centrum chewable, yes they are rather good, but there's carbs in them !

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
