My team also recommends Flintstones Complete. I don't love the taste, but at least I'm not paying an arm and a leg for the privilege. :)

I take Flintstones. I you aren't using chewable vitamins you may not be getting all the benefits. There's a reason why they recommend chewables.

If you take Flintstones Complete, do take the right ones since they have several "complete" formulas that all differ from each other. Get the chewable ones (not gummy) in the purple bottle that are like the kind you took as a kid. I also take chewable or liquid calcium citrate and Kind brand liquid B12.< /p>

I take centrium chewables. You don't have to buy the bariatric specific ones. Also you don't have to have chewables. Just no Gummy kinds since they lack thiamine. Do your research and consult your surgeon and team. They know best.

My nutritionist also recommend Flintstones complete. I don't know that they are "sufficient", but they are about the same ingredients as the Bariatric Advantage--my list has them both as either/or. Plus I take extra B6, B12, Calcium, D, Biotin.... Think that's all? All required by my surgeon.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
