Bariatric Advantage Vitamins



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!!

I am wondering if anyone takes these and is interested in B12, Calcium or the Multivitamin. I ordered them and they didn't sit well with me. Today I got an email that they sent out a refill order and I didn't realize I set that up. I can't take them but they won't take them back. So, I am set to receive them this week. Anyone interested in them? PM me:)

I am in the same boat with allot left over--I don't like taking them either. I could take them with yogurt, but alone they make me ill. I try to remember to take one now and again with yogurt so they don't all go to waste...

Yup! They are chewable. They should arrive this week. Brand New. Will not even open the box -- will just slap on another label and send out. :frown1:

Are they chewables?

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that these make ill. Have you tried the passionfruit flavored Iron? I've re-dubbed them "sweaty ball sac flavor." I know that is crude and disgusting, but so are those vitamins! Hope you find a taker for your Vitamins

HI!

I HAD MY VERTICAL SLEEVE DONE ON 7/6/10. I AM IN THE FULL liquids STAGE AND WILL BE MOVING INTO SOFT FOODS THIS WEDNESDAY. I CAN'T WAIT TO ACTUALLY CHEW SOMETHING!!! I AM SO GLAD I RAN ACROSS THIS SITE AND HOPE TO BE ABLE TO SHARE EXPERIENCES WITH ALL OF YOU. I AGREE WITH YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT THE Bariatric Advantage VITAMINS:thumbdown: I ONLY TOOK ONE AND IT MADE ME GAG. I'M AFRAID TO TRY ANOTHER ONE. IF ANYONE HAS FOUND ANY GREAT FOODS THAT ARE ALLOWED ON THE NEXT PHASE, SOFT food, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT. HOPE TO LOSE ENOUGH WEIGHT TO BE ABLE TO RUN AFTER MY TWO GRANDCHILDREN. MY FIRST IS NOW 4 AND A NEW ONE IS DUE AROUND XMAS. I STARTED OUT AT 290 LBS, SO I HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO. MY HUSBAND AND I CURRENTLY LIVE IN METAIRIE WHICH IS A SUBURB OF NEW ORLEANS. IT IS GOING TO BE TOUGH WITH ALL OF THE GREAT food DOWN HERE, BUT I AM GOING TO GIVE IT MY BEST SHOT.

LOL, I'm not sayin' I know exactly what that would taste like, but I'm just imagining that it can't be too far from the "passionfruit flavored" Bariatric Advantage Iron lol.

Anything chewable usually makes me gag. The NUT just recommended Celebrate Vitamins that has a type of Vitamin that dissolves in Water and it is alike crystal light... I can't imagine he is right though...

I told him it was easy for him to say because he can swallow them. SO, he said if that doesn't work we are going to find a regular Vitamin for me to swallow that isn't too big. :crying:

lillita...if they weren't chewable I'd buy them from you but I cannot stand chewables so I quit taking them.

I did switch to the One A Day gummies...they taste like candy! lol

Everything else I swallow.

Which one a day gummies are you taking? I have a gag reflex to almost anything that my body doesn't like :)

      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.
