Hi. I am a 57 year old woman who will be having surgery soon. Day #2 of 3 week liquid diet pre-op. I would like to find someone with a similar surgery date to talk to. MBY
Thanks for answering back. It’s my first time using a forum like this and I’m learning to navigate. I’ve watched a lot of Utube videos but I’d still like some advice on vitamins. Which ones/gummies,drops, patches etc. I feel grateful that there are so many choices and I realize everyone is different.
I think (pray) I’m either out of menopause or about to be. Someone shared that after losing weight they were always cold. I can’t imagine Something to look forward to.

Yes, I feel the cold a lot more now than when I had a thick layer of fat covering my body ;-) It is easy enough to put on some extra layers and I love merino thermals. It is still a small price to pay for being so much healthier.
I didn't start multivits until about 3 weeks out from memory and I learnt very quickly not to take them on an empty stomach. They made me feel very nauseous. I had some chewable ones in the beginning which were really awful and as soon as I could I went to a capsule. I'm not sure where you are located but if in the USA someone will be able to suggest some brands for you I'm sure. Maybe get small quantities in the beginning rather than bulk buy until you know which ones you like best. You will be taking them for the rest of your life so you need to make sure that the agree with you.
regarding vitamins, the same as KiwiGal....except my solution (even at 3 years out) are the chewable gummy vitamins. My stomach was very finicky way before sleeve, so too many pills in a day and I'm just over!
