Centrum chewables...orange flavored. I tried the Flinstones but couldn't stand the taste. I like the Centrum much better. I live in SD and can only get them at Target.

I take Smart Pack gummies, 2 Calcium gummies (I don't drink milk), and a tiny Iron tablet.

I am still in the approval process, but the Vitamins are a must for me! HTH

I love these! I use Isotonix OPC-3, Multi Vitamin w Iron, Vitamin D with K (im deficient in D) and Vitamin B - I'm not good with pills so these are perfect for me.

I used to take Centrum until i realized my body wasn't absorbing any of it. I saw that may pee was always green after taking the chewables, then I discovered ISOTONIX. Please check www.gastricvitamins.com and read up on them, I love every single one, I take multi, Calcium, and Vitamin D, they are absorbed by the small intestine by 90%.

Don't get your hopes too high. :) I think they are pretty bad..... but they are cheaper and more complete than other brands I have found.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
