Complete Multi Formula Crystals



Recommended Posts

Before i was sleeved my doctor game me a packet of sample Vitamins from Bariatric Advantage. One of the sample is for

Complete Multi Formula Crystals. It is packaged like crystal lite, an a long slender envelope. It doesn't have directions on it, and when I looked on line I found this:

Delicious Drink Mix means far fewer pills. 3 daily servings give you a complete high-potencyMultiformula with 1500mg of elemental Calcium (citrate) 900 IU Vitamin D3, 900mcg B12, 300mg potassium, 9mg of thiamine - and MUCH more! Refreshing Wild berry flavor is something you will truly enjoy taking every day.

Does any know how much Water to use...and would it serve as my multi vitamin, B12, Iron, and calcium, or would it just serve for my multi vitamin.

Input welcomed!

Oh YEAH, I like this. Calcium is one thing I struggle with, as all the pills I've found are big, and the "chewable" ones don't add up to that much, so you end up eating a handful.

Thanks for the tip... I had not heard of them.

At the one support group meeting I went to, they had samples of this for us to try. I'm pretty sure they said it took the place of the Multivitamin but not the Calcium.< /span>

If you've looked or noticed, how does it compare price-wise to the multi chewables?

To be honest, I have checked the price. I'm first trying to figure out what the heck to do with them? Add Water...how much? If I like it...I don't care how much more it cost if it keeps me from having to east several chalking Vitamins a day.

I don't do calcium until two weeks post-op, until then I am taking Pepcid Complete...well, actually Pepcid Complete was recalled about a year ago, so my doctor told me to take the generic complete or Pepcid AC. I tried the generic and they were yucky chalking big tablets. I bought Pepcid AC last night and they are tiney tablets that you can swallow. I still cut it in half, but took both halves at the same time.

For calcium there were lots of little chocolate chews wrapped in silver paper to sample. I tried a few before surgery and really liked them. I will likely use them so that I have a little dessert each day!

      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.
