Recently someone posted about Vitamins and how hard they are to get down, I didn't want to hijack someone's thread so I wanted to make a new thread. I am able to get the vitamins down ok but need some recommendations for a good Multivitamin and where you get them.

I really would prefer chewable, melts, or gummies but if there are smaller vitamins,that would be great. I can't do the huge one right now... hurts my belly!

Thanks in advance.

I would love to take the gummy's as everything else makes me sick. But my doc said no to those because they don't provide enough nutrients for a bariatric patient. Did your doc ok them?

I use the adult Gummy ones from costco. I was using bariatric choice chewables but they make me sick. My gummy ones are delicious :)

I also take the costco adult gummies. The NUT said the same thing at our appts however they work great for me. My lab work has been great at the 3 and 6 month appts, the only thing off was Vit D and that has to do with where I live.

And I should admit that I rarely remember to take them but it seems the food I am eating has done plenty.

I take Celebrate Vitamins. You can get free samples sent to you by registering at their website. I order them online. I've recently switched to capsules for the multivitamin, but I really like the chewable Iron (orange), so I'm not switching that.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
