I usually get my Multivitamin at CVS when they have them on sale buy one get one free (or half-off). It is these - keep in mind these have Iron so you can't take them at the same time as your Calcium. I take my Calcium in the morning and at night, and take one multi at lunch and one in the early evening before dinner. This was one of the multis on my nutritionist's "approved" list.

No problem! I also found a Protein Bar that I can actually eat in very small portions lol so it basically took me all day :) Atkins chocolate Peanut Butter it has 19g of Protein they had other ones but I went with the one with the most protein and not so bad a little dry but I thought that was a good thing b/c I actually drank a lot more Water than usual And one a day makes a women's multi Vitamin called petite so it's small u have 2 take 2 of them a day but it beats those nasty chewables ;). I hope this helps let me know how u do

      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.
