Post-Op Vitamins & Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

Per my surgeon and NUT I should be taking Calcium, a Mutli-Vitamin and B12. My surgeon says that it takes close to two years to become B12 deficient. But B12 is obviously great for energy. I am pretty sure my program recomends 2000 B12 over the course of a week and 1000 Calcium in a day.

What is everybody else doing?

i have been taking Bariactric fusion chew-able Vitamins. taste is not bad at all and there is no chalkiness or after taste. i also had blood work done last week and everything came back normal so i would say that they definitely work .

How many are you taking a day. The nice part about this one seems that it has both Calcium and B12 in the multi-Vitamin. Right now I take three different supplements (Multi, B12, Calcium)

i take 3 or 4 daily. it suggest 4 per day for bypass patients , 3 per day for sleeve patients and 2 per day for band patients.

i like it because its a one stop shop for all the essential Vitamins i need, no need for a cabinet of vitamins when i take this. price aint bad either for what you get.

Without my B12 shots I woudn't be able to get out of bed most days. The Multivitamin I take to feel better. I use to take a nasty liquid one, so I switched to flinstons gummies. Its like a treat. Don't stick with nasty Vitamin. You can find decent ones out there.

I just ordered a bottle of Bariatric fusion and comparing the B12 Im getting with what is recommended, I am clearly not getting enough. Until it comes I'm gonna up my dose of the current B12 sublingual I have.

Thanks all!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
