I don't know about any Vitamins that cause less nausea, but you can ask your doc for Odansteron (Zofran). It comes in liquid form as well as a tiny pill form. You can take that for your nausea about 10 or 20 minutes before your Vitamin and that should help. Good luck.

Yes, I have the same problem with multi's. I fight this all the time, because it's hard to make myself take the vitamin! What I've started doing with my chewables is to let them slowly dissolve, like a piece of candy and that seems to help me. The only thing is, i don't care for the taste much, but this is better for me than the nausea feeling I get afterword. I stocked up on Bariatric Advantage Vitamins and I don't want to waste them. Also, if I try to swallow a whole Vitamin, I still get sick, if I can get it down with out hurting. Soooooo, I too need suggestions about the whole vitamin thing. :thumbup:

I too get nauseau's when taking Vitamins. I am a month out and I just quit taking them because I hate the feeling. I know I need them but if anyone finds anything else that works I'd love to know too.

I first tried the adult chewable vitamins. They didn't work for me. Then I tried Flinstones chewable. They hurt me too. Now I am using gummy vitamins. I have One a day Kids jolly rancher flaver gummies. They are GREAT... No nasty Vitamin burps afterwords & no nausia. I am a true believer of the gummies.

I had the same problem. I bought every chewable under the sun. So the Dr., said to go ahead and take a regular Multivitamin. I started taking Woman's One A Day -- Nausea is gone. I swallow it and don't have to worry about the chewables any more! :001_rolleyes:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
