Congrats on your upcoming surgery. My surgeon recommended the chewable Bariatric Advantage multi-vitamins to begin with. You chew 2 a day and they are rather large so in the beginning I really had to space them out - I usually have one about 10 am and another about 3 pm. I ordered a 2 month supply to begin with. I like them - they taste kind of like Flintstone Vitamins.

I would perhaps start out with a 30 day supply just to see how they work for you.

My nutritionist told me to wait on the Patches till there is more research. She joked since we take Vitamins the rest of our lives there will be many advances. I currently have barimelts for B12, Vitamin D, Biotin and Calcium. I still taking a capsule for my multi Vitamin but purchased powder I can add to Water while I'm on liquids and puree.

I got the Patches esp after the surgery pre eating phase, worth it for piece of mind. Looking back I would not be able to have eaten much for the first month, so it was a good fit , better than taking nothing.

I use the Patches.

B-12

Biotin plus

vit D and Calcium

and Multivitamin

i haven't had my bloods done yet since my surgery was only last week, but the PA at my first post op visit said her patients who use them have all had good levels.

I went directly to PatchMD.com and Got a discount for 40% off if I auto-shipped when I received my first order it was a great price

if I can find the code I'll post it

I think it was spring40

      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! 😞
