I'm having trouble with Vitamins also. They make me so nauseous.

@@Sugary Sweetheart I used Wellesse liquid Vitamins (double dose, one in the morning and one at night) and did great on them. I bought mine on Amazon.< /p>

Does anyone have ideas for liquid vitamins?

Walgreens and Centrum are the best liquid one's. Walgreens had a buy one get one free.

The same thing happened to me and a nurse told me about this one. It is small and did not make me sick. I think I got mine at Walgreens. After about 3 months, I was able to tolerate the large "complete" ones. Hope this helps!

I use Bariatric Advantage Multi Vitamin but the berry one. I didn't like the orange one. They are huge so I cut them into 4's. You have to take 2 of these chewable tablets/day.

I buy my Bariatric Advantage Calcium from Amazon. If you like Caramel, you'll love these. They are so good!

Gummy women's one a day are awesome

My NUT told us no gummies. Which stinks cause that's what I take now. Guess it's the added sugar in them. They recommend Flinstones....2 a day.

Per my Nut and Surgeon, the gummies do not absorb as well as the chewables, melt aways and liquids. I finished out my gummies and went to what they recommended.

But every program is different and has their own recommendation and thoughts of Vitamins and what not

Ditto on gummies from my nut. The bariatric ad chewable tabs are made by the devil. They are uber gross. The chewable Bari adv that are like a candy are good. I worry they may be hard to swallow post surgery. I will miss gummies. Will look at flintstones. I got a dissolving Biotin from costco that tasted fine, liquid Vitamin D from whole foods (blue bonnet brand can buy on Amazon). I also got a blue bonnet liquid Calcium from whole foods but have not tried yet.

      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.
