Liquid Vitamin Suggestions



Recommended Posts

I use the liquid Reviva from Sam's club too. I was taking the same chewables as you and I have a hard time with the taste. You only have to take 1-2 tbsp of this liquid. Tastes good mixed with diet V-8 juice.

For Calcium I take Viactin chew, they come in choc or vanilla. The choc ones taste like candy and are delicious.

I have a friend who had by-pass surgery 8 years ago and she told me she takes ReVita. You can get it at Sam's Club. They are about $12.00 for a months supply. Kind of a tropical taste. I take 2 oz. every morning. I am on my second bottle. You keep them in the refrigerator. Not bad tasting. I bought all the vitimins my Dr. recommended and I just couldn't take them. They made me gag and I don't like that feeling. My last blood tests were great.

WOW, the size of a dime ??? I didn't even realize that it was that tiny. I really would much rather take my kids Gummy vits instead of my nasty chewables. Most fo the time I don't really chew them all the way....end up swallowing them early. YUCK

I figured it would be larger as well but apparently not. Hence no pills or food larger than an m&m/aspirin.

Definitely helps keep it in perspective to have a plastic egg (the size of the pouch) with a dime size circle on the bottom.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
