So so much comes from b vitamins! I suggest a b complex :) I think Bariatric Advantage has one, and lots of companies have a sublingual B12

I thought vit B has to be under tongue or in a shot after surgery. Was told because it needs to go into the blood stream

2 Celebrate multi vit, Celebrate Vitamin D 5000 IU, 4 Bariatric Advantage calcium citrate chews, bariatric advantage Iron 30mg, Natures bounty Vitamin B12 sublingual 2500mg. Just remember Calcium and iron can not be taken at same time. I hated taking them at first now I have a system down and actually like them. I'm 3 months out.

Are you referring to the drops? Because the ones I've seen are sublingual drops. But I'll stick with my peppermint sublingual tabs for now ;)

I take Bariatric Fusion...they are chewable and have EVERYTHING you need. I take 3 or 4 a day (dr wants 4 but i tend to take 3). I have tried strawberry, cherry and tropical so far. Id rather do that then take a ton of other pills. I also take one Biotin pill a day to try to help with the hair.< /p>

      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.
