I picked up RenewLife Probiotic 30billion cfu, calcium citrate chewables (generic Walmart brand), NatureMade Fast dissolve B12, and I still need to pick up a chewable Multivitamin. I also have Vitamin D 50000 units a week i am on as well.

Hey I just replied and lost my whole post to the" cloud", some days i don't think I'll ever be electronically literate. Hokay--- here it goes again.As a future RnY with an inquiring mind where are most,of you getting your Vitamins? Doctor's office,m.o., health food store, grocery store, big box store or doubling up on what you have on hand already? As an Upper Age, I prefer that to Senior or GoldenAger, person who's on a tight Social Security budget, I want the best bang for my buck but also the most effective. What do YOUR Vitamins cost monthly? Thank you all in advance.

I actually went to Celebrate.com and order the sample pack. It’s 10$ I believe. Free shipping. I got it within 2 days. And it’s gave me some of everything they sell to go over with my doc and see what flavors I like and what not. When if you RNY?

I ordered a 90 day supply for 40$.

If you contact your surgeons office they can probably recommend a source for you.

I take Bariatric Fusion. I like them a lot. My surgeons office said for many people this is all you need to take. However, I do take supplemental Biotin and Vitamin d/calcium pills. The biotin is from BariMelts. The Vitamin D is a chewable from Caltrate. This is only because my Vitamin D was in the toilet pre op and because I don't want to loose my hair (even though, its probably inevitable). Bariatric fusion is also fairly cheap. I have to take 4 per day with RNY and 1 bottle lasts 30 days, at $27.99.

I have to take chewables so I chose opurity Bypass and Sleeve optimized chewables. They are once per day plus I have to take 1 calcium citrate at night. Only $30 for a 90 day supply direct from the Unjury site.

      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!
