Any bad experiences ? by not taking vitamins/protein drink



Recommended Posts

I am so afraid of losing my hair that there is no way I won't take my Vitamins. I hear ya on the Protein Shakes as I am sick of drinking Isopure Protein Drinks. I know I need them but man.......

Any particular multivitamin we should take? I was given a lot of information but not a lot of detailed information about how many milligrams of different Vitamins I should take. I only know that I should make my way to 60 Protein. But what about the other vitamins and minerals how much of each?

Double check with your nutritionist. We were allowed to choose whatever multi we wanted, but we were given specific amounts that we should take. I don't know them off the top of my head. They are written down in my handbook.

I had a thiamin deficiency last year. We caught it before it got critically low. It is normal this year. Our bodies store certain Vitamins and deficiencies may not cause issues until years later, then it may be irreversible. If you have a chance to attend a class on vitamins, please do so.

I have read that the binders in regular Multivitamins are so strong that it interferes with absorption. This is a big advantage for bariatric multivitamins. Trouble I had was those bariatric Multi Vitamins made me feel ill. First 18 months post op I did a liquid multi but I hit a rough patch and was having trouble eating. I switched to gummies figurimg they'd be fine along with good nutrition and a daily premier protein(enriched with vitamins). I also eat healthy and take other Vitamins. I take B complex sunlingual drops, Vitamin D. I used to be good about the calcium citrate but I understand that is controversial now. Big ugly pills that I have way reduced. Need to talk that over with the doc.

If you like coffee you will love this Protein Shake. You can order them on Amazon.... Just a little pricey but will help you get the Protein in daily that's needed. You can also Google them and they will send you a sample. I mix mine with fair life milk 10 oz and two scoops. ( amazing ) just try it!!!! Two of these shakes and you will get in 60 grams of protein in than count your protein you eat. I know protein is hard to get down but this shake made it very easy for me. I'm a little over three months and still drink two a day.attachicon.gif ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1445679103.781937.jpg

You, my wonderful friend, are a saint and a scholar. I *need* this coffee protein ;w;

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
