I'm 3 weeks post op and having difficulty taking my Vitamins. I usually like my vitamins with food. However after any meal I'm just too full to take anything else. I haven't taken any vitamins other than B12. Just not looking forward to my chalky Calcium lol. I also have liquid Omega but also not looking forward to that. I'm afraid to vomit. I am only taking one Protein Drink a day. I wanna be healthy and for that I know I must take them but I'm just too afraid to vomit.

Have you tried to take the Vitamins before you eat, therefore you would have taken them before you get food. Maybe eat a little less when taking the vitamins. I'll be 3 weeks out on Wednesday :) I only drink 1 ptorein shake a day too, but eat Protein in my food.

I could not take my Vitamins until 6 weeks, then I had to move to Centrum Chewable's, because I would throw up the vitamins I got from the DR. also, the calcium chews, I get them from Dr's office, they taste like tootsie rolls, lemon drops or caramel chews......LOVE Them..... I think you are pushing the vitamins too soon.......check with your DR

All of mine are chewable. I'm post op day 9 started them on day 7 and so far so good. I do split up the calcium citrate into 2 times a day though. They are a little much even though they are chewable. I bought the petite Calcium citrates opened them up and saw there was nothing petite about them! I'd have to take 4 a day!! No way! So now I add the little extra sugar and do the gummys! Hope this helps!!
