I hate the taste of the kids chewable vitamins. They leave a terrible taste in my mouth. So I went today and bought some regular target brand women's. Vitamins. They were kinda big do I broke it in half b4 I took it. About 5 min later I got really nauseous and had the "slime" for the first time. I also had one of the body shaper cami's on for the first time. Has this happened to anyone else? Was it the Vitamin or the Spanx cami tight on my belly?

Also I'm 3 weeks post op...

I take Bariatric Fusion chewables that I buy from my surgeon. I'd like to take something different because I have to take 3 a day and they are kinda hard, it takes me forever to chew them up because my teeth are sensitive.

I enjoy almost all of my Vitamins. Here is what I take:

  • 2 Daily gummies (from CVS)
  • 2 Vitafusion Calcium (sugar coated Gummy vitamins) Yummy!
  • 1 Oderless Fish Oil (1200 mg) - This is not chewable and it is about as the big as the fish it comes from. This is the only one I don't like.
  • 1 Vitamin D Chewable Gel (from Metagenics-Bariatric Advantage) (10,000 IU)
  • 1 sublingual B-12 (from Natures Bounty) (2500 mcg)

Most of these you can find at your local pharmacy or drug store. I couldn't find the high dosage of Vitamin D and B-12 at the store so I bought them on eBay.

Hope this helps!!

My doctor told me to wait until 5-6 weeks before switching from a chewable Vitamin to oral. I also hate the chewable kind, Gummy or sugary, can't stand them. I use the Centrum Women's Petite's - mainly because of their size. Granted I have to double the dose, but they've never caused me any discomfort. Also, be sure to take them with a Protein Shake or food. I usually get it down with a little bit of Water a few minutes before eating and it's fine.
