Chewable/Liquid Paleo vitamins and protein?
Krystal0528 replied to Sherrib4health's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Thanks guys any input is great. In really considering the wellese liquid vitamins.. Has anyone else tried this? I have tried capsules and chewables an have had no luck. I have been on gummys. I have the celebrate capsules an have tried an tried to take. Within 10-15 minutes if taking I got light headed an little dizzy, then throw up. It's so bad I actually dry heave due to puking everything up an nothing being left but the icky yellow stuff (I know TMI) but my hole upper body is sore after this process. I have been through twice an I'm scared to try again:( I have been great on flinstone gummy but in afraid that I'm not getting what I need, or no if I need to take more than just that. -

It's so bad I literally dry heave because I can't get anything else to come out. Then my hole upper body is sore:( -

I have tried bariatric advantage an I have tried celebrate, both times I have tried it made sure to put something on tummy an within 15 minutes I was throwing up:( I need a vitamin I can keep down! So far only thing I have been able to take is the flinstone gummys, but I'm worried that it's not enough of what I need. Also if ppl are taking the flinstone gummy are they taking anything else to? Please help... I'm trying to get in a routine an I'm having a very hard time -

Unprepared for this complication
Krystal0528 replied to tammygRN's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Durring my egd my doctor informed me of hiatal hernia an said he could repair for me the same time he did my sleeve. I had never had reflux or heart burn issues before but agreed that if there was a problem go ahead an fix. Boy was I wrong... I was sleeved 5/28 an had the hiatal repair done as well an for some one that has NEVER had any heartburn issues or acid reflux, I am very disappointed that I no have on a daily! My doctor told me to take Pepcid complete... It does wrk to, but no for long. I luv my sleeve an have had no complications so far, but I hate the reflux issues:( -

Week 6: May 27-31st Sleevers
Krystal0528 replied to lylabelle's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I didn't have to diet a month before surgery. Now my dr did have me do a liquid diet 1 week prior to surgery, but I go by the weight I was when the hospital weighed me the morning of surgery -
Week 6: May 27-31st Sleevers
Krystal0528 replied to lylabelle's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I to have been kinda doing the same thing. I don't deprive myself of things I just take a bite. My typical day consists of: 530am Breakfast: jimmy dean breakfast bowl (meat lovers 1) has 28g protein. I can usually do half of it. 930am 1st snack: a few bites of the morning breakfast bowl leftovers. 12:00 lunch: turkey cheese an cracker lunch-able with a few grapes 3:00 snack: 2 pieces of beef jerky (3 pieces is 17g protein) 630-700 dinner: a smart one/weight watchers/ or some kind of high protein low calorie microwaveable TV dinner. This works for me. I still cook dinner every night for my hubby but of course I can't eat that, so I have got into my own groove. For instance last night I fried him homemade big bacon cheese burger for him an for him to take for lunch today, but I ate a grilled chicken fettuccini TV dinner that had 14g protein an had fiber noodles instead of carbs. Tasted good but I still couldn't finish but like half of it! Good luck ladies;) -
