Has anyone used the Unjury Vitamins? Thoughts? Suggestions?

My surgeon is recommending a B12 sub-lingual once a week for energy, as the calories consumed will be so low. They also gave me a about a billion different Vitamin samples and the only ones that I could tolerate were the unjury Vitamins. I actually really like the soft chews (I can't remember if they were Unjury or Celebrate) but they said I can't have those for several months, so nasty chewables it is I guess. I've seen several people on here say they use Flintstone Complete but my surgeon said absolutely not so I guess that's out for me. :(

My surgeon actually recommended 2 flintstones chewables per day. I buy Source Naturals B12 . I tried Unjury Vitamins before surgery and after surgery I couldn't stand the taste( multivitamin). I gave them to a friend . It was $200 worth. I kept the chewable D.

B-12 shots for me, for sure! I found Nature's Plus Source of Life liquid Gold multivitamin when I could not tolerate the Bariatric Advantage multivitamin. A compound pharmacist recommended it. I wrote down and compared every ingredient in each Vitamin, and the liquid won. I wanted the best Vitamins I could find, to keep myself healthy. I even like the taste. Don't forget the Biotin, for your hair. Good luck!

I take the opurity chewable Vitamin by Unjury, (Optimized for Sleeve patients). I also take an acid reducer and sublingual B12 on a daily basis. I was told by my surgeon and the NUT that I would have to take the Prilosec and B12 till the end of time. They will evaluate the need for Vitamins after the first year.

I do B12 shots too, give them in the butt.

I am also able to get off of prilosec now. If I feel like my tummy is acting up I take a 14 day course of it, but am no longer doing it daily and its fine.

The B-12 shot is in the fat, not the muscle.

Aline, I guess you are asking the amount of liquid Vitamin I take and it is 2 TBSP per day

Macman, Today I met with my surgeon's nurse and NUT - They both acted like they had no idea if I should continue the Prilosec. Thanks for your post, I will make sure I get a refill until I see my surgeon in March. Better safe than sorry. Linda

If you find that your B12 shots and Vitamins are not working, you may want to try Methyl B12 instead. My body doesn't use the other B12 correctly and it builds up to a very high level. When I switched to Methyl B12 it made a huge difference in my energy levels. I'm getting my labs done in a few weeks, so I'll see if the blood levels have decreased.

      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.

      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!!
