What do folks think about Costco's Kirkland Adult Multivitamin gummies? I bought them yesterday and like the taste much better than Centrum chewables.< /p>

You're supposed to take 2/day.

I was told NO gummies. Maybe you are further out than I am, but they are too hard on the sleeve. Bariatric fusion are chewable.< /p>

My NUT recommended Flintstones Complete. You have to make sure it's the ones that say Complete. They have everything you need.

I use a Gummy for my B12. And I use the bariatric Creamy Bites Calcium - the chocolate tastes just like candy.< /p>

Get my Vitamins from my Bariatric clinic. Told to take 3 a day. Blood draw every three months and they examine the results closely. They know right off the bat if you aren't taking them by the results of the blood test. I assume vitamins from the drug store would work as well but I wouldn't have any idea how many to take to equal what the Clinic wants me to have. A month supply is $25.

I take Vita4Life and I’ve always had amazing labs. They make quality supplements and their prices are so good. Not everyone can take a capsule like I do, but I was speaking to someone there the other day when I placed my order, and they’re coming out with chewables shortly. I believe she said they estimate 1-2 months. You may want to check them out if you’re looking for a chewable?

As for hair loss, it’s a tough one. Your Hair loss is due to telogen effluvium. It is caused when your body has been shocked by trauma, in this case -- surgery. Essentially, up to 30% of your hair goes in to the resting phase, and then falls out. It's temporary and will grow back. I didn't go through it after my surgery thankfully but not everyone does. I took Vita4Life Hair, Skin and Nail formula and their Multi-Standard formula since the second week post-op. I don't know if I can credit no hair loss to that, or to just being one of the lucky ones but I believe the supplements do work. If I were you, I'd space any supplements you take out over taking them all at once. Good luck. I'll link you the supplements so you can take a look at what I've been using. My labs have been spot on for years thanks to these.

      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.
