Many of us have been advised against gummies as inferior nutrient value. Can't comment specifically on that brand however. Ask your NUT.

I don't take Centrum but I have been taking Women's one a day gummies. My surgeon said they were fine.

How have your labs been?

I have not had any; don't go back to the doctor until Dec 1.

I did take them prior to the surgery on 10/14/2015, but I was told not to take them anymore during post-ops. I really liked them and I didn't have side effects like I did with the other Vitamins that I have to take now.

There are no guarantees. If your surgeon okays it, then go for it. Mine does not allow gummies since they don't feel they provide complete nutrition.

I do. I take Centrum gummies and caltrate gummies. Have for 9.5 months. My labs are absolutely fine. No deficiencies.

I take 2 Children's Flintstones Vitamins per day, which was an option from my doctor. I may change later down the road, but they are good. I love them!

      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.
