I take like 10 different Vitamins I wonder is that too much at one time I take them with Breakfast. Im just wondering if the body can distinguish each Vitamin if I take them all at one time. Can I get some feedback on this. thanks.

I was told to take the Calcium two hours apart from the Iron (or multi if it has the iron). So I take a chewable multi with Iron, sublingual B12, gummie B complex and D3 (small gel pill) and capsule Biotin at once. Then later in the day I take the chewable Calcium.

The nutritionist said to take chewables and capsules over tablets because of the amount of time it has to dissolve and absorb in the sleeve. Makes sense so that is what I do.

I take a powdered Vitamin at breakfast, later on I takechewable Iron, magnesium and Biotin together and then at night I take a Calcium pill by it self. I was also told not to take the iron with the calcium. I also do a nasal B12 spray once a week on sunday.

I have to take my Vits at night. I just eat chewables. All others mess with my intestines.

      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.
