For my multi, I use the generic chewable from CVS (Centrum One-A-Day copy I think), it's super cheap (around $7), doesn't taste horrible, and I can get if BOGO every few weeks (like next week).

My B12 is the Spring Valley sublingual from Walmart (best taste and price so far).

I do use the Bariatric Advantage calcium chews.< /span>

I use Centrum's 1 a day with prostate support (cancer has all but erased the men in my family)

B12 is liquid, I think spring valley, I also do the drops.

Vit D is also spring valley

Fish Oil is whatever is on sell

I don't take Calcium, I'm against kidney stones when supplementing with D. Doesn't happen to everyone, but it can, and has led to kidney stones with using D and Calcium at the same time.

Well, discovered today that CVS has discontinued the chewable I was using... :angry:

You should have no problem with capsules or tablets after the first couple weeks. You will find higher quality Vitamins with fewer additives. Vitamins are not something to skimp on, though. You just spent a lot of money and effort on surgery. Spend a little on decent supplements. Those gummies have about as much potency as a jolly rancher most of the time.

Don't I know it! But I'm not throwing them away. Ill go back to Centrum Silver chewables and continue D3 and B that dissolve. They're better for you. I take a lot of other Meds in the am. I take two sets of Vitamins. Am and pm

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
