BARIATRIC VITAMINS



Recommended Posts

Hey guys and gals. I'm wondering what brand of Vitamins everyone takes. I'm still having thin Hair loss issues after 1 year. I take 5000mcg Biotin, Calcium, b-12, biotin Shampoo. The Bariatric vitamins were making me nauseated and I would vomit them within minutes of taking them so I stopped. Surgeon said to double up on Multivitamins. But I'm thinking I need to try again to see if it helps my hair. Any suggestions?

Sent from my SM-J327P using BariatricPal mobile app

I take these, but citrus or strawberry flavor.

I also take 2500 mg. of Biotin with gummies per day.

I recently switched to the Patch MD. I'm not going to tell my nutritionist bc she told me not to use the patch. But I had so much nausea in the mornings when I would take my Vitamins and they told me before surgery to take with food that's why. But it only got worse after surgery so I couldn't even take them. I wad told chewable for 3 mos then can take regular vitamins. Is that what everyone else understands? I had the sleeve.

I went to natural grocers today and bought a chewable children's Vitamin. They had so many choices. I've been using B12 sublingual liquid for years- $6 at Walmart. I also got a liquid Calcium with d at natural grocers.

I haven't had my sleeve yet but I love B12 shots. I already have an issue absorbing sublinguals. I just give myself a shot once a week.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
