FUSION vitamins Question



Recommended Posts

Depending upon what surgery you're having that may work for you, but probably only if you're having the sleeve. I WAS taking 3 Bariatric Complete Multivitamins and 3 Bariatric Advantage calcium citrate, but due to certain... circumstances (overabundant Iron and raised calcium) I now only take 2 Bariatric Complete Multivitamins, 1 Celebrate Multivitamin WITHOUT Iron, and 2 Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate a day.

The Bariatric Complete is $20 and with 60 pills only taking two a day means it lasts for a month. Celebrate is $22 for 60 pills and since I only take 1 a day that's a 2 month supply. The Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate is $25 for 90, but since I only take 2 a day that's a 45 day supply. So roughly that'd be $472 a year which is about $1.29 a day. It's really not that bad...

Bariatric Fusion is missing two important Vitamins. Folate and Vit K. Amazon has Folate 800 IU which is amount recommended. But cannot buy Vitamin K by itself. They are all D3 with K2. None of the Bariatric brands chewable vitamins (for first 3 months) are complete with all recommended at proper dosages. WTF.

      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.
