is anyone taking multi vitamin capsules



Recommended Posts

I am 7 weeks out - I am taking all normal vitamins/meds. I do have to break some meds into two so they go down easier.

I take calcium citrate in tablet form, Iron in capsule form, acid reducer in capsule form and Bariatric Advantage multi Vitamin in capsule form. Been swallowing capsules since I was in the hospital.

I started taking regular Vitamins about 6 weeks out. Have you tried Flintstones chewables ? That is what my doctor recommends right after surgery.

My doctor told me my Nutritanist will educate me on that but it beginning 2 be a pain I email her and she wants me 2 come in the office so I will have 2 pay her $45 a visit when I only asked her can I take the biartric Multi Vitamins in capsule form that's in the brochure she gave us with samples in it cause the liquid vitamins is making me sick on the stomach I just can't stomach them anymore

R they hard 2 swallow

Nope not at all..but one day at about two and a half weeks out I forgot I was sleeved and popped five pills (two multi Vitamin, two Calcium, and my acid reducer) all at once and had kind of an OSM as they were going down.. but nothing happened, I didn't even feel them. The biggest pills are the calcium citrate.. I take the "petite" size which are only petite, when compared to the regular size "horse pill" calcium supplements. The Multivitamin capsules from Bariatric Advantage are smaller than my acid reducer or the antibiotic capsule I was prescribed after surgery.

I take the Flinstones chewables.. It works well I take mine and my son takes his! He thinks its funny that his old mom is taking the same vitamins!! Lol. I also take the solutabs of Prevacid and a B12. Thru actually taste good.. Cherry flavor!! :-) the only actual pill I take and I've been taking since the day I came home from the hospital is my synthroid. But it's a very small pill.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
