Trying out bariatric vitamins..



Recommended Posts

I just had my surgery consult last week. Dr Joyce says yes he can do the bypass. So, I have my psych consult left to do then my class. So I am in the process. I am hoping for a May surgery date. That will fit my schedule better plus I told the nurse that will be better. So I am in the process of trying out bariatric Vitamins. Celebrate had a sample pack that I ordered and tried. I noticed that the Multivitamin chewable and Calcium plus chewable gave me a sharp pains like near my bladder. Not the side of my stomach but lower. They were very sharp but only while I kept biting off and eating pieces of the chewables. As soon as I was finished the sharp pain stopped! I didnt know what to think so the next day I tried it again. Again the sharp pain happens while chewing on the chewables. So today I went back to my other Multivitamin and it didnt happen. So i figure maybe something in the chewable that my body or wherever that sharp pain came does not like this chewable. So, I will try the chews instead. Really weird! Has anyone ever had sharp pains with any baratric Vitamin?

I use the Bariatric Pal patch Vitamins. They work well. I bought the ones suggested for the gastric bypass. I had surgery 11/11 and have been using them since. Works great.

Weird! I like the Celebrate vitamins; out of all the ones I tried they tasted the best. I use the regular Multi, the B12 sublingual and the Iron+C from them. No sharp pains that I've noticed.

Yes, me too I love the taste of Celebrate Vitamins. Whatever reaction I am having is weird. I have to see my primary doctor next week and I will bring this up to her. It may have irritated my bladder. I have interstitial cystitis so my bladder is sensitive.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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!
