Our surgeon said that we could just take our normal meds after surgery that were not extended release from day 1. I am currently taking the bariatric pal capsule Multi-Vitamin.

Drugstore Calcium and Vitamin D; Bariatric fusion multivitamin with Iron (my program says you have to have a bariatric multivitamin but the others can be OTC). I would never do chewables - capsules only.

@Tim C My surgeon recommended a different brand but it upset my tummy. So I tried a few other brands and finally settled on this one because it has a pleasant taste and didn't give me a stomachache.

I used to take BioCeuticals Vitamins (specifically women’s essential but they have ones for men, Tim). They’re in capsule form so pretty easy to swallow - only two a day. They’re considered a practioner-only product so high quality. I believe you can get them in America now. They contain no sugar, sugar alternatives or sweeteners unlike chewy Multivitamins so no calories. Another win.

      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.
