@trclark23 why do you take so many pills? I was advised to take the Multivitamins only 4 times a day with Bariatric Fusion. But I’ve been looking at BariLife for my next go around, they have just 1 Multivitamin per day.

It's what my nutritionist and surgeon said to take?

Hi... I'm new to this thread. My mini gastric bypass surgery was on June 6th. I think my doctor made my pouch too small. I'm constantly nauseous, at least every 3 days. I'm almost afraid to eat. I can only have a few bites of fish...usually salmon and can only eat cantaloupe. I'm no longer able to drink my Protein shake....a few sips make me nauseous. Is or has anyone experienced these?

That's how I was I had to change to a different Protein Shake because I could no longer drink what I was drinking before the surgery, it was giving me gas so bad, I ended up using Ensure Protein max that worked better.

Just dont give up promise it will get better

You said that you take multivitamins 4 times a day, I only take 6 a day and they’re chewables.

They're really not bad to keep up with and I’ll probably transition to something else later down the line.

To be honest, once they cleared me to start taking them, I’ve felt great.

Hi, I’m new to the board, I had my sleeve done on June 20th and just met with my dietitian today who finally allowed me to go onto purées. I’m also having issues with Protein Shakes (I’ve tried 15 different brands) and feeling nauseous with everything I’ve tried. Hopefully purées are a better experience

I’ve used the Orgain brand and it’s much easier on my stomach. Anything with dairy after surgery is painful and makes me sick

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
