I take liquid B-12 complex and Centrum Multi-Vitamin. For whatever reason I happend to like the taste, most everyone I know doesn't, I can actually feel the Vitamins absorb quicker (at least I think I can..LOL) :P .

BTW: Has anyone ever told you, (by your pic) you look like a skinny version of Kevin Smith (Actor, writer of Dogma, Chasing Amy, Jay and Silent Bob)? :huh:

Take Care!

I take the Nutrametrix Multivitamin (w/ iron) and their Calcium supplement at the advice of my NUT. I have had zero issues.

Hi,

I am interested in liquid vitamins also. I just came across Wellesse Liquid Vitamins... they have a multi, Calcium, Iron, D3, and B12 in liquid form. Has anyone tried them?

Cheers, Dottie

I've purchased some from purity products. I've been taking their stuff for years, but now I've ordered the liquid advanced multi. It s only 2 teasp and its got some good stuff in it...should be getting it soon, and I'll keep you posted. Pricey, but I always ask them to work a deal and they always hook it up...call the 800 on the website. I also LOVE their blueberry detox psyllium fiber: best poops EVER!!!!! TMI? Well I dont mess around with constipation...F*** that :-)

I pretty much love the taste of all the wellese products. I don't like taking Vitamins at all so this is progress for me, I am doing them almost every day

I have been taking the Wellesse liquid Vitamins for months now with no problem, before that I was trying two different kinds from Bariatric Advantage but kept throwing them up.

Thanks for that info on the Vitamins. I have Bariatric Advantage too through my doc but I'm thinking I might need to try something else. And sorry for the vomiting...that's never fun.

      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.
