Hey guys, I was wondering if you all have any suggestions for getting in all the Vitamins daily? I seem to forget to take everything; and that is easy to do when I'm at work or trying to focus on getting all my Water in. Im only 3 weeks out so Im just a littlestill learning...is there a schedule that some of you use since certain vitamins cannot be taken together? Also, what all vitamins are you all taking everyday? It just seems like so many pills everyday; but I wouldn't dare trade my sleeve!

I actually use one of those pill minders, for one thing. I take my multi Vitamin right before bed, so no problems interfering with others. I do sometimes forget Calcium, a dose here and there. I keep one bottle on my desk at work, and one in the kitchen.

I have the same problem...it is so hard to keep taking all these pills. Not only that, but they are so big and taste awful

Thanks for your comments.

Do you all also experience nausea after taking certain supplements? Today I felt absolutely horrible after taking Biotin but it probably due to me not having much on my stomach at the time. I also experience nausea after taking zinc....I will figure this thing out because I definitely want to keep as much of my hair as I can...

      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.
