Loving my vitamin patches!



Recommended Posts

I've been wearing My Vitamin Patches for 4 days now. They are so easy! No chewing and swallowing vitamins!????????????

I have VERY sensitive skin and have allergies to most adhesives, so I was a little nervous to try them. But I've had no issues so far and you wear them for 12 hrs a day! I do 8a-8p. I have had any come unstuck either! Wanted to share for anyone else considering trying them. It runs about $70/month.

Yes, it's the BariatricPal Store. I bought the pack of 4 Patches for Gastric Bypass patients. My doctor's office has seen success with them though others on here say not to buy them. I'm giving them a chance. I'll use them until my first set of labs that measure for them & see how it goes. Not having to chew & swallow Vitamins is awesome!

11 months post op, and I have used Vitamin Patches from day one. My labs are perfect. They are a real live saver for me , because I hate taking pills and would probably would have stop taking them at some point.

      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.
