jenneliza 257 Posted October 9, 2012 At 3 months post op I am so sick of nasty chewable vitamins. I did switch to gummy vitamins but I'm so ready to go back to regular vits and add my hair skin and nail back. Can these get stuck? Has anyone gone back to whole pills? When? And how did it go? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OleHippieGal 275 Posted October 9, 2012 I am sure they get tiring eating the Vitamins and they are so freaking huge. That's what got me. I haven't had my surgery yet. But they gave me the bit and cal to start taking and I got some Biotin to start taking now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jenneliza 257 Posted October 9, 2012 Do you know if we can absorb the regular pills enough? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerrie Ann 57 Posted October 9, 2012 I do. No problems with absorption at all. Easier on my pouch since I am not dumping all the time. my superpower is...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs.D 39 Posted October 9, 2012 I went from chewables to regular at 6 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBdoodle 483 Posted October 9, 2012 I could not tolerate whole pills not matter how small right after surgery, I had to grind up everything !!! I am 6 months post op today and I am slowly going back to swollowing whole pills now for about a month. My only advise is to take it slow, start with the smaller whole pills first then work your way up to the larger size pills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eilujann 7 Posted October 9, 2012 Well crap! I am 33 days post op for rny. I couldnt tolerate any hard pills so i stopped taking them all together 2 weeks ago. I just ordered a ton of chewables and was super excited to recieve them. But now u guys r saying u hate those too. Sounds like a no win situation to me. 1 droppingitlikeitshot75 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
