Recommended Posts

My doctor said its safe for me to start taking chewable vitamins what are the best brands that you recommend me to get I think he said something about a Multivitamin and a B12 if you can let me know what works great for you guys. also want to start taking something for my hair just in case it starts to get thin. I also have Vitamin chewable C is that okay to take also with the other Vitamins?

My program recommends Bariatric Advantage:

I can't comment on the taste because I take the pills. They are cheaper and calorie free. But I know many people have problems swallowing pills and prefer the chewables.< /p>

I use Celebrate chewable vitamins. Made for bariatric patients.

My surgeon also prefers the Bariatric Advantage Line. I take the chewable Multi-Vitamin RNY formula in berry. Their dissolvable b-12. The calcium citrate chewy bites in chocolate. The chewable Iron in passion fruit. I also take a chewable Biotin with folate from costco. We were given samples of a couple different companies. But these turned out to be my favorite. These break down to about $42 per month. My doctor said he preferred that our multi Vitamin was for bariatrics but on the other supplements he didn't mind if they were different. Just chewable and sugar free.< /p>

I did a poll a long time ago asking about the best tasting, and Celebrate came out on top. I had the first one on Thursday... not bad at all.

I was wondering about these. Did you try the chewable or "gummy" type?

I did not. I just had my surgery 8 days ago. I ordered the Celebrate about 2 weeks prior, and tried one, and it wasn't bad. My pre-op instructions said no supplements, and post-op, I'm supposed to wait 2 week more, so I haven't really had them on a daily basis yet.

      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! 😞
