Recommended Posts

Hey! Truffles Here! So i decided to share what i take! I decided to stick with a Cheap Brand(Found in Walgreen) that almost anyone can find. I was asked to share on Facebook what i take so i figured i might as well Cross post it to here. I am Still Pre-op but my Surgery Date is 9/15/2015! So almost there. I am also on my 14 day preop diet. So Consuming about 600-800 calories a day.

Just giving yall an idea of what i've been taking for the past couple of weeks. I don't recommend taking what i take, this is based on my Blood results and given the OK to me specifically by my Dietitian.

-I take a Multivitamin, Biotin(10,000mcg), Iron(30mg) in the morning along with B100(100mg)

-Afternoon ill take Calcium(1000mg) as well as D3(2000UI)
-Same thing in the Evening about 4-5 hours later
-Then at night i just take another Multivitamin, Biotin(10,000mcg) and Iron(100mg)

-This along with 50g-100g of Protein a day.

All of this is NatureMade except for the Multivitamin(Centrum). Also the Caltrate Soft Chews are mainly for when im tired of that Gummy/Pill taste.

Share your Vitamins please! I'd like to know what everyone else takes. ʅʕ•ᴥ•ʔʃ

My bloodwork has been really good. I'm down to very few.

I take a centrium multi in the AM. 3 hours later I take 12,000 Calcium. In the evening I take 5,000 bioton and my Zyrtec. That's it.

Oops, I forgot I also take Vitamin D with my multi.

I take Walgreen's brand Vitamins except my Calcium which I take citrical

To be honest, i dont really like Nature made but its cheap. They are Huge and I have to slice all the tablets/pills into 1/4s to practice for post-op.

I was told I couldn't swallow pills or eat gummies for the first 6 months. My surgery is on Wednesday, Sept 16, 2015.

I take Vitamins that my Doctor recommended. Not sure of the brand, but it goes through my insurance. I pay $10.00 a month & get a multivitamin, Biotin, B12 nosespray, & Calcium.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.
