What Vitamins Do You Take



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on Dec 23rd, i never started on any Vitamins but i feel like i should have. So i want to start. I went to Walmart and got a Multivitamin, bioten (sp), Fiber, and a Vitamin b complex. Is there anything else that i should be taking. I seen some people taking papya enzymes. So i wanted to check to see what other people are taking..

My dr recommended a chewable multivitamin and a chewable Calcium supplement. I take the chewable Flintstones Complete Multivitamins but haven't started the calcium supplement yet. I feel like a kid again, kindof how I think I will feel when I get to my goal weight!

I take a Flintstone with Iron and a Centrum Silver chewable.< /p>

FWIW most chewable Vitamins are not as complete as the regular tabs.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
