My doctor approves flinstone Complete chewables with an additional chewable Calcium. They cost about $15 for 150 tablets, a 75 day supply. I compared the ingredients with some bariatric Vitamins I initially bought and they're about the same. The bariatric vitamins cost me over $30 for a one month supply.

all my md was make sure chewable, target or Walmart should carry some. I heard someone say costco has some good chocolate chewable ones.

I use the Centrum chewable ones, orange, not the yummiest, but with a drink of h2o after, tolerable. I think I'm going to switch to the flinstone ones, though, LOL. I also take sublingual B12 (2-4 tabs a day), and Calcium and Vitamin D, oh and Biotin.< /p>

Costo has a liquid high potency daily Vitamin. It's very affordable, and liquid so there's no issue with getting it down. Plus it has lots of Fiber. I actually like the taste. it comes in a two pack for less than $20. Lasts several months.

My doctor recommended flinstone Multi chewable with Choline; I buy the costco brand which is much cheaper (exact same thing). Vitafusion has both fiber and Vitamin D chewables; fiber I get at Costco and D at Walmart or drugstore.com. Caltrate (calcium + D) large bottle at Walmart (I have low D levels so I take a lot)

I been buying Flintstones COMPLETE with CHOLINE for almost 6 years now. I have tried the off brands, and they just don't have the pick me up that the Flintstones do. I know this from feeling tired, and bruising.

You can go to the Flintstones Web Site, and print off a coupon, then look for some sales, and save money.

Just remember: It must be there COMPLETE/CHOLINE or it won't really work well.

I do 3 a day, and I feel great.

Get back if you need to.

Shirley.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
