My bypass surgery is next wed. I'm excited and nervous. I'm looking to go n buy my vitamins and sugar free items. Any suggestions on what is best for stage 1? Any advice is much welcomed!

 

Talk to your surgeon, his nurse and the dietician to see what their immediate post surgical vitamin requirements are.

My surgeon had me taking liquid Centrum twice a day for the first 2 weeks post surgical when I got home.

Starting the 3rd week after that I started taking a Proton Pump Inhibitor such as Dexliant once a day, bariatric chewable vitamins twice a day, chewable calcium twice a day, chewable elemental iron and potassium. After my 6 weeks Co q10 & fish oil to the others.

Check with your surgeon, nurse and nutritionist to make sure of their requirements.

Best wishes to you on your surgery, try not to think about what your going to eat, the hospital should supply u with a take home packet to get u through your eating stages it will be fine.

 

Good Luck.

See you soon as your weight starts to really come off.
