Vitamins Make Me Want To Vomit



Recommended Posts

I'm 2 weeks post and when I take my chewable Multivitamin I feel horrible! What I find weird is I didn't feel this way during the first week, I took them with no problem. Anyone else experience this? Maybe it will get better once I start eating?

Yes I did especially the ones with Iron they use to make me vomit too. Our stomach's empty very quickly now so you have to take your Vitamin right after you do your Protein or something heavy. If you take it after Protein you will be fine. Once I waited an hour and vomited while driving, horrible!!! Your stomach is still swollen it will take a while to get to your new normal. Give it some time but you need that nutrition from your Vitamin since your diet is now so limited. Don't give up or maybe try a different type. Do whatever you need to for your health.

      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.
