Tespo vitamin dispenser



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried this? Does it give all the Vitamins needed for Bariatric sleeve patients. I'm very interested in buying this versus taking all the pill and chewable formats of vitamins but wanted some feed back before I purchase. Any tips, suggestions, comments or concerns?

my NUT and surgeon told me it wouldn't give enough of the Vitamin amounts that I need. Every surgeon and vitamin regimen is different, so what may work for some, might not work for others.

I'm hoping that down the road my surgeon approves it, as the "shot" looks so much easier than the pills, disolvables, and chewables!

Hi I was wondering why it was not approved by your Nut? This is worrisome since I have one and LOVE IT. Yikes

@Sherry RiceIt does not meet the Vitamin levels that they are recommending at this time. I so wish that wasn't the case as doing a vitamin shot in the morning and evening would be so much better than 3 pills, 3 dissolvables, 1 chewable in the morning, chewable at lunch, 2 pills and a chewable at dinner, 2 chewables before bed.

I was able to get one when they were half off a few weeks ago, but haven't had a chance to open and get it started yet. I'd rather do them this way or chewable.

They are still half off. I just ordered mine. The price is reduced once it's in the cart. As far as the dosage possibly being too low, I would think the higher absorption rate compared to traditional Vitamins might offset that some.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
