Vitamins B50 complex



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on October 19th and surprisingly by the grace of God I think I have been doing extremely well except- my two capsules

I was told ahead of time the b50 was nasty and had a horrible taste. How do u take it. It taste horrible like really really bad how can I get it down supposedly too early to swallow capsule and the digestion breakdown hoopla but I need help with that one mainly

My instructions for that Vitamin was to unscrew the capsule and mix in a drink or something and take like a shot. It's horrible and unbearable

Secondly- prevacid capsule is to be open as well and mixed with but the little pebble balls don't dissolve. I can't do the texture

Any help or suggestions

I'm really late on this, just saw it as I was searching "capsules". I would suggest mixing with applesauce and then swallowing small bites like you would swallow a pill. Maybe add cinnamon if you like it and see if you can mask the flavor of the medicine. I'm trying to find out when we can take something in capsule form, like at what stage will the shell of the capsule melt in the pouch. Please let me know if you were able to come up with a solution.

@@Pinkgirl1234 I use the whole line of BariMelts. They just work perfectly for me. I'm wanting to take some herbal supplements and can only find them in capsules. So, trying to find out if capsules will ever be melted in my pouch. I think I'm going to have to mix the powdered herbs in sugar free fat free pudding. Seems like the chocolate would mask the flavor of the herbs. Gotta try something.

Great to know about the Barimelts.I am still on all liquids but will do the pudding for the powdered herbs.I have heard about 2 supplements that are fantastic.

Reviva Multivitamin and Mary Ruth organics multivitamin...chech them out.Both liquid.

      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
