I've use Celebrate Vitamins for the past year and love them. Plus, you earn points every time you order. I have enough points now that my next couple of purchases will be free. Can't beat that !

I received samples of liquid and chewable vitamins from my NUT and the liquid were far better than the chewable. However, after surgery they made me vomit. So please don't over buy, you can request free samples of the liquid from wellese, or google free sample bariatric Vitamins. Im just now able to eat Flinstones and the chewable Calcium from Bariatric Advantage without feeling sick my surgery was 4/23. Good luck!

I also use Celebrate Vitamins. My dr gave a sample pack but I also ordered one from Celebrate so I can try all the different ones out.

I use Trader Joe's chewable high potency multi's. Even taking a double dose (one at Breakfast, one at dinner) they are significantly cheaper than other Vitamins, especially the bariatric vitamins! I get my labs drawn regularly and they have always been perfect.

For the first four weeks after surgery I was on liquids, so took a liquid Multi-Vitamin - Wellesse brand.

      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.

      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! 😞
