So i bought the bariatric Vitamin powder that you mix with Water and drink but that doesnt sit well with me . I also cant take one a days or Centrum. I also tried a bariatric multi chew and the Celebrate one. They all make me very ill. Sooooo Im back to gummies at this point I feel like it is better then nothing does anyoine else take gummie Vitamins? ??? Im starting to get worried im not getting enough vitamins and I take the bariatric calcium chews and B12 dissolve ones 3 times a week. And I will start Iron on the 28th doctor said to start a month post op.

I took gummies in the begining, but my nut said they didn't give me enough nutrients. So I went to BA multi. After a few weeks they began to make me sick, so at 4 weeks post-op I was able to swallow BIG pills and switched to Centrum. I have been taking them ever since!

hmmm Centrum doesnt sit well with me either. If my doctor feels like the gummies are really not good then i will ask about prenatal Vitamins I just had a baby 8 months ago and the ones i was on did not make me sick. Those prob have a lot of stuff in them???

Target has prenatal gummies that I take. My doc and nut said they were fine and my bloodwork has been fine, so why make myself sick. I eat two a day, plus sublingual B12 and Calcium. Has worked well for me. I could not stomach any of the chewable ones. I tried many types and spent lots of money before I switched to these.

Gummys apparently don't have I want to say Thiamine, so bear that in mind.

I have a big container I bought at Sam's Club before I knew what to look for. I plan on mixing them in over the next year so I take chewables recommended most of the time but use the Gummy ones maybe 40% of the time until they're gone. It's good to know I should be sure to have them on hand in case I can't tolerate the chewables at some point because I do agree they're certainly better than nothing.
