oceanbreeze 17 Posted September 3, 2014 8 weeks out and needing to reorder Vitamins. Taking Multi with Iron, B-12, calcium citrate. Bought Celebrate at docs office and going to reorder those or try Bariatric Advantage. Any recommendations? I want as clean ingredients as possible with the most nutrients etc - no messing around for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeagleLover 1,020 Posted September 3, 2014 My NUT recommended Bariatric Advantage as the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geelynn 72 Posted September 3, 2014 My NUT recommended Bariatric Advantage and told me to look at it as "a treat". I thought she was crazy, but I have to admit, I look forward to that caramel Calcium twice a day now! I couldn't stomach the chewable Multivitamins (I tried Flintstones and bought some opurity I'm going to try and sell on ebay!), so I bought gummies by One A Day Women's and they go down better. I'm not sure if they are allowable by my NUT, but I figured if she wanted me to take chewy Calcium, chewy multi would work as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madwife2002 110 Posted September 3, 2014 My NUT recommends Bariatric Advantage too but the Vitamins make me nauseous so recently bought some gummy vitamins and they will have to do until I go see her soon! Ran out of Iron but I enjoyed that so will buy some more from the Dr's next week when I go for my 3 month follow up-My labs look good so it should be ok for a week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Mac 6,262 Posted September 3, 2014 I was taking a Vita-fusion chewable multi that I was getting at Walgren's but mt bariatric physician switched me to Bariatric Advantage AE because of its extra Iron content. It is a huge horse pill stink bomb that I could not swallow whole or in quarters........so I got my morter and pestle out of the kitchen and mush them up and put them in a blueberry applesauce cup. No problem now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MizzouFan1 88 Posted September 3, 2014 THE BA Vitamins made me horrible sick. Now, I take AlternaVites which is like a pixie stick style that dissolves on your tongue. The ingredietns are pretty good too. For whole foods and excellent ingredients try Garden of Life Raw One for women. They have lots to choose from. I still cant stomach the big pills yet but once I do I will moving to those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oceanbreeze 17 Posted September 3, 2014 Great feedback! Anyone using Celebrate Vitamins? That is what they have at my docs office. And I wish they would all take the word Bariatric off the bottles - for those of us keeping this private!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCP 619 Posted September 4, 2014 My Nut, who is big time into food purity, won't eat sugar, drink Creamers, etc, strongly recommended Celebrate. I found out during lab work that I had very severe anemia. That plus an extra 100 pounds.. No wonder I felt like stomped dog doo! One month of two a day celebrate Iron and my level more than doubled. She said it is very well absorbed. It is a little costly but I am sold on the products. I buy online on their site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
