chewable multi vitamin advice



Recommended Posts

Is the caltrate calcium citrate? I think I saw on TV an add for liquid. That would be great.

I'm taking the Vitaband Vitamins, the new berry flavor. I love the flavor, the watermelon made me want to barf towards the end of my 90 day supply. I'm having an issue though... two times in a row now I've been denied donating blood because my Iron is too low. I'm at 12.3 and they want it 12.5 or above. I'm kinda freaked out because my iron level was more like 17 before I got banded. I talked with my surgeon and he didn't seem that alarmed. I'd love to hear from other who find the Multi-Vitamin is just not enough and what you do to supplement it.

I wanted to tell people that vitacost.com has anything you could possibly need and at very good prices. Their shipping is 4.99 no matter how much you order. I ordered a bunch of stuff, plus the chewable calcium citrate and chewable vitamins.< /p>

I could not stand the taste of the Bariatric Advantage Vitamins. I was silly and signed up for the auto delivery option before even trying it. Well it took months of telling them I wanted to cancel before they actually canceled the autoship. I suggest the Bariceutrical liquid vitamins and Protein. They taste great and are individually packaged so its easy to keep up with. Good luck everyone!

      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.
