and yet another vitamin question

I take Bariatric Advantage vitamins.  I have been taking (for about a month) the multivitamin morning and night along with calcium+D.  Then I take iron at lunch. 

I did not take these vitamins until about a month ago because all vitamins made me feel like I was going to puke and I stayed sick all day!

So, anyway, I had been taking them regularly for about a month and had been stalled for a few weeks.  DIdn't think too much about it.

Last week I was out of school for spring break and got off of my vitamin schedule.  I didn't take hardly any all week long!  Wham!  Stall breaks and the weight dropped off like crazy last week, despite the fact that I wasn't eating as well due to being out of a routine.

Is that coincidental?  Vitamins certainly can't cause you to keep weight on, right?

definitely coincidence.  Most likely you changed something else as well that triggered the weight loss.    Vitamins are essential to good health after RNY.

Coincidence.  Vitamins will not prevent weight loss - unless you're taking so many chewables you're eating several hundred calories worth of them.
