Vitamins suggestions



Recommended Posts

I use the Bariatric chewables found through the BP store. Yes, they are pricey but it's a 1-shot deal. I hate swallowing pills so as much as I hate spending the money, it's one less hassle I have to deal with daily.

I've heard some people take Flinstones chewables - 2 a day I think to meet the daily need for post op patients.

Your daily Vitamin requirement is very dependent on the type of surgery you had. So to adequately answer the question, you need to tell us what you had.

Of the three major surgery types the vitamin requirements of the duodenal switch is the greatest, followed by gastric bypass, followed by the sleeve.

      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! 😞
