What's your daily vitamin schedule?



Recommended Posts

I'm suppose to take a Multi-Vitamin, calcium citrate after each meal, B-complex and B-12 and Iron (at bedtime). Problem, I'm suppose to take chewables but haven't found multi-vitamin (except gummies which are a no as per my NUT) and I take a thyroid pill first thing in morning and I can't take a Vitamin or other pill 4 hours after taking thyroid pill. Trying to work on a schedule... Wondering how everyone else takes their pills? Before sleeve Dr. recommended fish oil. No one has mentioned them. My Dr. appt still one week away... Oh and do you crush, swallow or cut your pills?

I think if you could break it down into mg per meal you would be better off. My Dr. said the chewy bariatric Vitamins are fine but I wasn't supposed to start until week 4. so I take my B-12 in the morning and then my Iron pill on an empty stomach this is about 6: 30 am when I go to work. Then Breakfast at 8 with my first 500 mg calcium citrate chew. I have 3 of those a day with each meal. At the end of the day I take my multivitamin since this one seems to make me a little nauseas. I hope this helps.

      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! 😞
