I actually buy the vitagummies... they make gummi Vitamins for adults... I buy them at both Walmart and Target...

Does anyone know of a Vitamin that is small and can be swallowed. I cannot tolerate the chewables. I had surgery in April 09 and have some rstriction. I have lost 57 lbs.

Buy Vitamins in liquid form. Works perfectly!

Great job on the weight loss. I don't have any problem swallowing pills. I hope that is not a bad thing..I hated the time when I was having to crush my pills but now I don't have any problems.:thumbup:

I don't have any trouble taking pills either. I don't take any of those gigantic gel pills though. I figure I'd just be asking for trouble there.

There is a Vitamin called One A Day Essentials. It is a very small vitamin about the size of an aspirin. But it does not have everything that the regular Vitamins have in them. One thing it lacks in Iron. The vitamin is hard to find. Last time I got them I ordered them from Amazon. My iron dropped low though so I did switch back to chewables instead of getting a seperate iron pill. Hope this helps.

I also use the gummi Vitamins, gummi vita D's and gummi Omega 3's. I use the Sunny Valley carmel calcium chews. I kind of think of them as my dessert!:confused:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
