I used a generic (like centrum) Multivitamin. I got the b-1, b-12, d+k dots, and d3 from drugstore.com. I can't remember the brands off the top of my head. I like Bariatric Advantage calcium chews (chocolate, caramel, raspberry, and lemon).

Protein: ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates and Syntrax nectar fizzy navel (especially when I was on clears). Premier Protein, GNC lean 25 (orange cream), Quest salted caramel, unjury, Unjury chicken Soup, ProtiDiet creamy chicken and Tomato basil Soups, etc.

I highly recommend you start with samples before investing in large tubs.

Walgreens brand multi and Calcium pill. Not sure what brand Iron and B12 subliminal. I order my whey Protein from http://www.rawdynamix.com/whey-protein/ they have lots of flavor and options on sweeteners. I like unflavored and unsweetened myself. Shipping is super fast and I find them cheaper than unjury.

My NUT made a suggestion that you might consider. Take your Vitamin list to your pharmacy at a time when they aren't busy and they should be able to help you find what you need.

I use alive multi (bariatric multi's make me sick), Bariatric Advantage Calcium, and Celebrate Iron.

Premier Protein is my go too for Protein but you can always go to whatever store and get samples to make sure you like it.

Hey There, Just adding my 2 cents worth. I love the Bariatric Advantage Multi Vitamins (large but taste like the good old fashion Flinstones and the calcium citrate Chews. (peanut Butter) Truly like Peanut Butter cups. Those are my treats during the day. lol. I take 2 of the multi in the morning and 2 calcium chews during the day. Their Protein powder (chocolate is my fav. as well) . It cuts down on so many different bottles sitting on my counter and having to keep up with so many.

Hope this helps.

I like the Bariatric Advantage advanced multi EA chewables in mixed fruit flavor. They taste kind of like double bubble bubble gum mixed with baby aspirin. LOL for Calcium I love the Bariatric advantage chewy bites 500. I switch between chocolate which tastes a lot like cosmic brownies and caramel which taste just like the squares you use to make candy apples. There are other flavors, but I really like those. Now Protein is a funny thing. I usually buy the Syntrax Nectars. My fav is Twisted cherry and wild grape, but caribbean cooler and crystal sky are pretty good too. I also sometimes but Biochem chocolate powder and I'm going to be trying out Quest strawberries and cream(when it arrives. I ordered it from the Bariatric Pal Store a day or two ago). As far as bars, quest bars are pretty good and occasionally I'll have a pure Protein Bar. I don't think I could have handled either first out of the gate, but at 6 months, I've had no problems.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
