Bariatric Vitamin home delivery good? Or No?



Recommended Posts

This is a great post. I am looking into Vitamin options now for after surgery. I wonder if any of the other major Vitamin suppliers offer the same option to bill your insurance and only charge the co-pay?

@@Elode did you have to give them a prescription from your Dr.?

You can get your Protein drinks and scar cream covered by most insurance as well. Click the top banner for info on InsureNutrition :D

@@mykdzmom Yes my surgeon had the forms and sent over the prescription, the b-12 is a prescription strength if I understood right.

I'm getting it. The fee is reasonable and the Vitamins don't taste horrible like the Bariatric Advantage ones I have do. So why not. Usually vitamins upset my stomach. These don't seem to yet

I did this program right after surgery-my doctor's office handed out the flyers in the pre-surgery meeting. I didn't want to have to worry about not having what I needed right after surgery. The service was really great. However, the Vitamins were the only thing that made me sick while recovering --- definitely ME not the Vitamins. I can't do the chewable ones. Too much like Sweet Tarts (which I never liked) I guess. Eventually I cancelled the service & switched the spray to the pharmacy. I would definitely recommend though. I was slow to cancel so I know I have unopened bottles that I'll have to offer up here when I get a chance. :)

      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! 😞
