I take the bariactric advantage multi Vitamin and bariactric calcium citrate chocolate chew from surgeons office

Then I take a 5000 mg Biotin started this a month before surgery

5000 mg B12 under the tongue

The surgeon also said to take the Iron with Vitamin C but I was told since I don't have periods i didn't need to take Iron from my Gyn. So not going to spend money on iron if I don't need it. I eat alot of green veggies. And I don't like that my poop is black from the iron. Doesn't look normal. If and when I have another blood test to see if I am getting all I need and they say I am low on iron and anemic then I will take the Iron but not till then.

Bariatric fusion. chewables. I take four a day. This brand was recommended by my surgeons office as it includes everything we need. They aren't too bad. I like wild cherry.

I also take Bariatric fusion chewables 4 per day, and that's it. Tropical is not bad either.

I take a Bariatric chewable that you take once a day!! It's from ProCare Health and it's $10 a bottle for 30 pills. I usually just swallow it whole. I'm not much on chewing Vitamins. I also take Biotin, Vit C and Calcium. Plus I get an Injection of B-12 monthly.

      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.
