No problems ... I do eat breakfast right away but I've never heard any of them interfere with any others. Educate me, please, if I'm wrong.

It also will slow the absorbtion of some medications but I don't remember any details. Sorry Try researching Calcium on the internet, maybe you can find out.

There is also a form called " dry Vitamin E " which does not have to be taken with fat ... it's also harder to find and most costly. FYI.

Hi Kathleen, apologies to anyone else who has responded to this as I'm doing my usual trick of not reading my email in order! Just wanted to clarify incase it hadnt been done that although initial tests showed that Vit E should be taken after a meal or with or after fatty foods, when the programme ran their own tests with off the shelf Vitamin E preparations, it made no difference in absorption whether it was taken with fatty food or not...

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Hi everyone. I need some lecturing and advice about taking my vitamin supplements. Since I started my new job, I have been really bad about taking my vitamin supplements. I have been so extremely busy that half the time I lose track of time and don't even realize it is lunch time or the end of the work day. Which also means that I am missing my protein shakes between meals. I have noticed some hair loss, which is why I reluctantly spent much money on ready made protein drinks. But, how do I remember to take a break from the chaos and drink my protein and take my vitamins? What is going to happen to me if I don't take my supplements regularly? I have been feeling great and I haven't been taking them regularly for almost 2 weeks now. I could really use some advice. Looking forward to hearing from everyone. in Virginia 299/250/150 surgery date: 5/3/06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Maybe some sort of alarm to remind you? I know my cell phone has an alarm I can set for things like that. Do you have your vitamins out visible? That would help remind you as well. You're just going to have to slow down & take the time! You've already noticed the hair loss. You don't want it to get worse do you? :-) I'm lucky I get a 15 min break in the morning & afternoon at work. Those are going to be my protein shake times. 380/342/160 R.D.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2006 Report Share Posted July 14, 2006 Hi Racheal, Is there a way you can set an alarm to go off as a reminder? It is vital that you take your vitaminds . It helps to keep your body functioning right. We do not gain all of our nutrients from our food and the vitamins give us what we are missing. Protein is important to the weight loss and helping with the hair loss. Unfortunately, the hair loss is going to happen. I have been dealing with the hair loss for 3 months now. My nurse told me from month 3-6 mo. I will experience it, around month 6, it will start to come back. It has slowed down a lot now.. so it looks like it will start coming back now. Take care of yourself . It is exstremely vital at this time. Best Wishes, Shauna " R.D. Abernathy " wrote: Hi everyone. I need some lecturing and advice about taking my vitamin supplements.
