Band Buddies Multi Vitamin



Recommended Posts

Hello all

My surgeon suggested the product Band Buddies to me but I have been to a few chemists and had no luck finding it. So I was hoping that a member living in Australia could direct to where it is sold. Or if anyone knows of any trust worthy online stockists. I have been taking a multi v tonic that is disgusting. So any advice even on other suitable products would be much appreciated. Thankyou.

I am using "nature's Plus" adults chewable multi Vitamin and mineral supplement.

180 tabs is 45.70 at my local health food store. I get the in natural pineapple or berry flavor wafer size tablets. They do the job, break down easy, for me, no burping them up. Taste is not bad, but do any of the really taste yummy? Don't think so.....

I was happy using childrens chewable or Gummy bear Multivitamins, and used the effervescent kind of tablets in a cup of Water for extra Vitamin C, Calcium and magnesium. Now I take tiny tablets of Vitamin D and another tiny fella for B complex, i literally ask the pharmacist for the smallest (or breakable, or effervescent) options available for the Vitamins I want. I still get the kiddy chewies and share with the kids on occasion just because I like them lol :-) Good luck!

I take childrens Flintstone chewable multi + Iron daily. I have always loved the taste! They are inexpensive and working well for me.

      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.
