I am 10 weeks post-surgery. I have lost 59 lbs. I am still having nausea. I was taking Zofran. I figured out through a process of elimination that the Vitamins and Protein were causing the nausea. So I stopped taking them and the Zofran for two weeks. The nausea stopped. Now, I have tried everything I can to try to re-introduce the vitamins and protein back into my diet. I can get the protein in. But not the vitamins. I cannot tolerate the after taste and I end up throwing up within a half hour of taking the vitamins. It doesn't matter when I take them or if I take them with food or without. I have also tried the liquid. I just cannot seem to tolerate the chewable or liquid stuff. Can you tell me if there is a pill I can take to get the vitamins in? Please be specific with Brand, dosage and where you bought them from. Thank you!

I would talk to your doctor and see what he recommends. Every doc is different and you want to make sure you follow their rules.

With that being said you do have options. My Vitamins are powder form and go into my Protein Shake. The name is new life bariatric supplements. My doc also suggested prenatal vitamins.

Please talk to your doc. The Vitamins r a must so they have to figure something out. I also have some that can be mixed in a drink they look like crystal light but u can drink them. Ask your doc first.

      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.

      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...

        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.
