3rd week post gastric bypass surgery

Had my surgery on April 30 and within the first 1 week got rid of diabetes, the first success/ Gave up multiple tablets and insulin shots that had kept me going for over 4 years.

Small issues with keeping fluids down. Protein with any form of sugar makes me throw up so switching to unflavoured ones. Icy cold Water is so soothing though have to be careful not to have too much.

Where I live the Calcium, Vitamin and Iron tablets are all large sized, am seeking help on chewable forms of these. Any suggestions please. I am unable to swallow the pills with water, feel as if its choking me.

Overall the best decision I ever made. Lost about 14 kgs (30 lbs) and need some new clothes for this phase !
