Multi chewable vitamin



Recommended Posts

I couldn't find one that wasn't disgusting. I used Flinstones Complete and took double the dosage for the first month post op. After that I started with regular Multi Vitamins.< /p>

I take Trader Joe's High Potency chewable multi's. They taste fine, are cheaper, lower calorie, and lower carb than virtually every other Vitamin out there. My labs have always been great.

My surgeon is very specific about wat I can take. He says Flintstones are a huge no no as well as gummies Centrum and one a day and generic store brands. He says it makes him frustrated that these Vitamins are even sold bc they are a waste of money and have no ground in being rated highly for purity and quality. He only approves of optisource, Celebrate BA and GNC .

I started taking these this week.

They taste pretty good, kind of a berry flavor.

Sometimes they have a bit of a bitter aftertaste, but I can live with it. :-)

I hated the Bariatric Advantage multivitamin too. I use the ProCare bariatric chewable in citrus and find that it tastes okay, but now that I've gotten permission to swallow pills I'm just trying to use what I have left before I buy some regular caplets.

I use building blocks Vitamins, they're a bit pricey but I like the way they taste. chocolate flavor was ok, but black raspberry was my favorite. Celebrate sent me a box of samples for $3... Pretty sure they still do that, they're not bad but I like building blocks vitamins better, they come in bundles and separates. Multi, anti ox, Calcium and Iron cost about $65 and you get them the next day. Hope this helps !

I take Bariactiv but it looks like you can only get them with Nascobal prescription. I like them, I take them on an empty stomach all the time no issues.

I took Celebrate in strawberry pineapple flavor - I did fine with them the first week but by the second week they started giving me awful reflux, and then they started making me gag. I was just cleared to take capsules so I switched to Bariatric Advantage.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
