I was taking the Flinstones chewables. I had my first postop visit with my doctor yesterday, and told her how much I hated them. I also questioned why i needed a chewable...when I'm able to take other pills. She finally relented and I can now take one a day. Thank God no more chewables. I also take a tums before every meal.

i Too Take A Flintstones W/iron chewable. I Also Take Caltrate 600 W/vitamin D Chewable Twice A Day. Funny, I Couldn't Stand To Chew The Flintstones Before Being Banded, But Now I Don't Have A Problem. Maybe Its Cause I Am Willing To Put Anything In My Mouth During This liquid Stage.............lol

I take upcal with Vitamin D in powder form twice a day. I get it from the hospital and the cost is about the same as Oscal. What is nice is that I can mix it in anything. There is no taste to it. My multi Vitamin is now Barriatric Essentials that I ordered from Nashua Nutrition. It's a good vitamin in gel pill form. The delivery time is about 4 days and my doctor said it was a good vitamin to take

GNC has a pretty good tasting chewable Vitamin. Easy to chew- just an fyi- don't try their liquid vitamin- the smell is enough to gag you and the taste is worse!

oh, i agree. i thought that a flintstone vitamin would not be enough for me and got the liquid GNC. after day three just the thought of taking it made me want to throw up. that was a wasted 25 dollars!!!

Are we allowed to take a chewable Vitamin right after surgery? I got a bottle of Natures Plus adults chewable. Tastes like pineapple!!

Or do we wait until a different stage?

I take GNC chewable Solotron. It is an adult chewable. They also have a chewable Calcium. Of course I am so dang horrible at remembering them.

I was horrible about remembering too, until I finally realized I had to take them AT WORK. The bottle of Vitamins is sitting on my desk (I am taking a regular Multivitamin now) and this means I will take it at least five days out of seven. My routine at home is so unpredictable I was never taking my vitamins!

You can take chewables any time you want. It's just personal as to whether you feel you need them vs. regular pills.

      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.
