I have a kind of Bariatric Advantage chewable, and they are awful. And HUGE. Thankfully I only have a one-month supply, because I don't plan on taking these for long. I'll either find a different brand, or I'll switch to the Bariatric Advantage capsules (not chewables).

right now im taking opurity brand. EXCELLENT Vitamin...but i just cant with the taste. i cant deal with it.

the worst part of my day is taking my Vitamin because it literally makes me gag.

the price is awesome though (only 35.00 for a 90 day supply) and i can vouch that they are excellent Vitamins because when i take them as im supposed to, i literally FEEL my body improving in function. so they do work. and their customer service is EXCELLENT and if you're like me, that's a biggie!

i recommend trying them. the only issue is you get a 90 day supply so if you don't like them...you're kinda stuck.

HAs anyone bought the Vitamins from the national drug companies like CVS or RIte Aid? Cuz they usually honor a return with a receipt, even if its been opened/used. COuldnt hurt to try?!?!

I am 2 months out. I get these for $25 month from a company called Norcor. They are huge and very chalky and literally nauseating. Where do you get the capsules?

I have generally found if I have a medicine that might make me nauseous if I take it with thick dairy like cottage cheese or vanilla pudding it helps. It only takes a couple of bites then take the pill.

I take Celebrate and they are almost exactly like Baratric Advantage. My NUT gave me a sample of the BA one. I don't have problems taking the Celebrate chewable however I take an Actigall at the same time so my surgeon and my surgeon recommended taking that with warm Water and cottage cheese anyway.

My NUT did tell me I could switch to 2 Flintstones chewable or multi-Vitamin with Iron, including pills.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
