I don't really know why I thought I could handle the large multi-vitamins. But I guess I had a momentary lapse... Anyway, for two mornings now, I have tried to take a rather large multi horsepill. And have experienced nausaeu, dry heaves, and lots of sliming. I cannot take them anymore. I was sick to death of the flavor of the chewable vits, and threw them out when I got these. I had one of my daughters Gummy bears the other day, and it got stuck, so I don't think the gummy vit's are the trick either. I was thinking a liquid Vitamin because this is ridiculous!

My question is, what kind of Vitamins do you take?

Thanks!

Did you have food in your stomach? I get really nauseas when I took them on an empty stomach. I take gummy vitamins now though, for some reason with the pill form I kept forgetting to take them.

I hadn't eaten anything when I took them, because I usually wait to eat at work, because 7:00 is just too early for me to eat. I can't do the gummies because they get stuck. I'm looking into some liquids.

Good morning,

I take gummies for my Vitamins and Calcium. They wont get stuck as long as you chew them really well. Honestly, I look forward to them everyday like a treat so I think its gonna be gummies from here on out.

I take Centrum chewables for adults, only need 1 a day, and they have an orange flavor. Sure there is still a vitaminy taste, but tolerable. I also have to take a Calcium supplement- viactive chewable. I can't even tolerate the smell of liquid Vitamin. I imagine if I tried to take liquid, I would vomit. Those large horse pill vits are probably too big for your pouch.

I couldn't stand the liquid vit so I did the chewable ones for a while. I just switched to the nature made gel tab vit. They.r large but they go down... I can't stand reg pill vit the smell makes me gag & dry heave. I did gummies before being banded but Im scared they'll get stuck now...

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
