Question...what has been the hardest thing to deal with post op?

I'm trying to get a game plan together and try to be as pro-active as possible ... what was or has been the hardest part of your journey?

Source of Life liquid Gold (bought on Amazon) i what I used. Recommended by a pharmacist friend who is 87 and looks far healthier than me. He said it was all I needed. It has 100 mcg. Biotin, but I took additional Biotin for the hair (still lost hair). I have added I compared the ingredients to Bariatric Advantage Multivitamins I bought, and Source of Life had more Vitamins by far. Two teaspoons a day, and a 30 oz. bottle lasted about 3 months. I think you can look at the supplement facts online and compare.

I always took Source of Life Gold chewables before surgery....recommended by my mom years ago because she has a very sensitive stomach and multiple GI issues. They were a yummy "dessert" for me at bedtime. But after surgery, EVERYTHING tasted too sweet to me. I tried their liquid, but still too sweet. I ended up switching to Garden of Life Vitamin Code for Women because it comes in capsules, so there's nothing to taste. Very comparable to the Source of Life Gold and I prefer whole food based vitamins.

Thanks for the Vitamin information!
