Vitamins
Hello All,
I am having the hardest time with vitamins. I've tried the optisource and I can no longer stomach them. I am now trying a liquid vitamin that I can barely stand and its just a matter of time till I won't be able to stomach that either. Can you share with me the vitamins that you are taking. Thanks
I remember the early days of post-op-dom!! You're right, the liquid vits are heinous!!!! Did your surgeon say when you could swallow pills?
When initially post-op, I did the liquid Centrum (OMG!), then I tried the Liquid Oasis from Bariatric Eating (after a while - ugh!). Now, I do a woman's multi-vit, a sublingual B-12 and 4 Citracal supplements (2 a.m., 2 p.m.).
Don't worry, this too shall pass, but it IS vital that you get your vitamins in!!! I promise it'll get better!

I used the liquid multivitamin centrum. Liquid calcium citrate made by Tropical Oasis. I also used the cewable centrum which I prefered the liquid cause it would down quicker. After 4 months post op the doctor told me that it was ok to switch to pills and when I did everything went well.
Good luck with everything.
I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.
