I haven't had my surgery yet, but my doc told me a Multi-Vitamin would be all I need. i'm already on Calcium and Vitamin D, so I will continue with that...after lots of research into this very question, I also saw people adding Biotin to help with the Hair loss. a lot of people take Iron, but i'm not anemic and it hasn't been recommended to me yet. at my pre-op visit i'll be asking more follow-up questions regarding Vitamins to make sure i'm getting everything I need.

Did you have any guidance from your team or nutritionist?

You should get guidance from your surgical team and nutritionist. Mine starts you out with a chewable Multivitamin - containing at least 18mg Iron and 400 mcg folic acid. Later Calcium and Vitamin d. But for amounts and how often to take them, please consult your nutritionist. Each doctor is slightly different.

Consult your nutritionist for sure.

Mine has me on:

2 Flintstones complete chewables

B-50 Complex

B-12 500mcg

D 5000 IU (I'm deficient living in the north)

2 calcium citrate with D (500mg total) TWICE a day

Whew!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
