Mulit-Vitamins throuh Amazon



Recommended Posts

Hello, all. I have been happily using soft-chew multi-vitamins from Bariatric Pal for the last four years. I live in Australia and shipping has always been expensive but manageable.

I just placed an order for more Vitamins and three types of Protein Snacks, and the cheapest shipping option was US$ 225! That is way more than usual--and more than I'm willing to pay.

Can anyone recommend a comparable product that is available on Amazon? Thanks!

Good gracious $225 that’s like $340 Aust. Yikes! Is someone delivering it person from the States? I wonder if a different carrier would be cheaper?

Hi, Sigh. I did find Bariatric Pal on Amazon, but when I go to purchase it says that they can't be delivered to my address. I should have mentioned that.

Arabesque, that's the cheapest option offered on Bariatric Pal. I think my best bet might be to send them to a friend in the U.S. and have them send it via the U.S. post office.

Since you're in Australia, where do you get your multi-vitamins--and what kind do you use?

My team said to buy any adult Multivitamin from the supermarket and take 2 a day. Had a bit of trouble getting some over brexit etc, and so I got Vitawell Adult multivitamin gummies from Amazon. Really inexpensive

I wondered if sending them first to a US friend or family member first might be an option for you too.

I don’t need to take Vitamins anymore except for Vitamin D in winter. (Bonus of having a sleeve. 😉) My dietician recommended BioCeuticals. The ones I took were capsules but they do some as tablets, liquids & sprays (the D I use is a spray). Don’t know if they have any as a chew though. You can buy them direct or from certain pharmacies (they keep them behind the counter with all the better drugs).

That's what my surgeon recommended as well. I'm currently taking 2 every morning. I did buy Bariatric Fusion 1 a day Multivitamin to start at my 1 month mark too. I'll see how that goes and post a review. ;)

Late reply but my clinic recommends ones designed for us, company is called Fit for Me. About 90 for 3 months. They resend automatically every 3 months. That's who I use.

Before setting up an account for Amazon Mexico, first determine whether or not you need to. You can always ship products to Mexico from the U.S. without renting storage space in Mexico or registering a new Amazon account. If you already have a successful business on Amazon in the U.S., all you have to do is enable international shipping on your listings link. Amazon.com receives a fair amount of shoppers from Mexico, so it could add a small bump in business if you’re prepared to ship internationally.

Hi all! I'm new here. I want to thank you for your feedback. I'll also order some gummy vitamins.

just make sure your plan approves of that! most Gummy vits have sugar so my plan does not allow them

      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.
