my nutritionist said not to use them. She said that "they are not recommended because we need the gut to facilitate the absorption of the Vitamin. The skin cannot absorb as effectively which could predispose a patient to Vitamin deficiencies". I emailed my nutritionist last week to ask because i forget to take my flinstone complete gummies sometimes.

Love them and they are so easy. 7 weeks out so no test results yet but others report excellent. My NUT reports their patients have good results so they now allow us to use now that there is some history.

I have heard primarily good feedback. One good way to check is to have your bloodwork done before starting and again a few months later. We have many options available in our online store:

My nutritionist recommended them since I hated the chewable. I use the multi and Iron. They're awesome!

Do you have to put a new patch on daily?

I HATE taking Vitamins so I got the Patches - so much easier. I use the multi, B-12 and the Iron. I'm a week out and have boundless energy so I have to believe they're working? Will see when I have my bloodwork.

Yes change daily. Actually leave on 8 hours, although my NUT said 12. I put multi on my shoulder late afternoon, early evening. sleep with it. After my morning shower, put my B12 somewhere hidden, hip. Butt, back shoulder under blouse. After work remove it. The other day I was confused I had two on in the evening. ???? What happens in Vegas stays in vegas, lol.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
