Bariatric Fusion vs Bariatric Advantage



Recommended Posts

Hello Beautiful People,

Gastric Bypass is definitely a go for November 23, 2021. I have purchased some Meal Replacement shakes and supplements from Bariatric Fusion, but I recently came across Bariatric Advantage. Has anyone had experience with both brands???? Which do you prefer???? Or does it no really make a difference????

Thank you in advance!!!! 💛💛💛💛

individual tastes vary so much that you're likely to get fans on either side. It really comes down to personal taste. I would guess that they're both very good brands, so either would be a good choice...

It comes down to personal taste/what you can tolerate/what you're willing to spend (Bariatric Advantage tends to be more pricey than Bariatric Fusion). I used to take the Bariatric Advantage Calcium until I discovered the Celebrate brand calcium which is so much cheaper ($59 for a 4.5 month supply verses what would cost $75 for the Bariatric Advantage one that would last the same length of time) and both taste good to me (I get the tablets over the chews because the calcium chewable tablets from both are more pricey. You save $8 for the Bariatric Advantage tablets verses the chews, while you save $46 on the Celebrate tablets verses the chew ones). So yeah. Taste, tolerance, and price are all key factors into what one's are the better choice for each individual person.

I will look into Celebrate as well. Price isn’t much of an issue. I have HSA with my job/insurance and so far I have been able to use it for the supplements. I always have money left over each year. So price isn’t an issue. I was asking in terms of quality. Noticeable differences in the way you feel.

My surgeon told me that of her patients that used Bariatrc Advantage had the best post-op labs, by far. Their Protein is pretty expensive, so I got mine through GNC or Walmart. After the chewable Vitamin phose, I stuck with their non-chewable Multivitamins. I don't know...I feel good! Their chewy Calcium tablets are pretty awesome.

I would eat the Bariatric Advantage calcium chews as candy if that wasn’t such a terrible idea. It’s like a starburst laffy taffy. 💖

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
