Bariatric Fusion multivitamins are crap. They only have 25% of most vitamins and minerals. Other brands like Bariatric Advantage, Celebrate, or Centrum have 100% across the board. 2 of any of those gets you to the 200% we should be getting. You'd need EIGHT Bariatric Fusion multis every day to hit 200%. And that makes them far, far more expensive than other brands.

The only way they are specially formulated is to increase their profits.

I would bet my house that you will end up needing other thinfs, especially additional B12, D3, and iron. No multi has everything that we need.

I am preparing for RNY surgery as well. I agree 100% with Felicity. I have done the same things she has done and I would be giving you the same recommendations. I am also in agreement with trying a variety of protein flavors and brand. Some companies such as Syntrax offer a sampler pack.

That is an interesting meal plan, never saw one like that.... By week 3 i could have some cooked veggies, but forget the fruit and starch for awhile. It is protein first, so until you are getting your minimum of 60g in, I wouldn't really be eating something else. cottage cheese, greek yogurt... protein powder added to Sf pudding.... I never ate Baby food.... just hand cut up things really small or mashed...make sure it is moist, a little broth or gravy if needed, small bites and chew, chew, chew.... you are only going to eat 2 or 3 bites at a time esp. as you move into meats.

Centrum chewable is the way to go for reasonably priced vitamin..
