These are all good because they are either chewable, Gummy or liquid so no trying to swallow pills.

Again guys I was cleared to workout at my 2 week check up, I wouldn't workout if I wasn't cleared. They just told me to start of light and take my time. As far as Vitamins I'm taking them already I just don't like them, the Calcium is liquid and gross and so is the B12. I do have my meal plan and she said as time progresses she will up my intake do to the fact I work hard in the gym.

My NUT likes optisource. It's a chewable that you take 4 times/day. Everything you need is in there. I'm using that until I get sick of using chewables and cleared to start regular pills.

Not bad. It's a chalky orange flavor. It doesn't linger too long after chewing it. I like the fact that I only have to deal with one bottle even though it is 4 times throughout the day. You can get it at Walgreens (check their website to see which store has it in stock) and also Amazon. The pharmacists told me today that a lot of insurance companies cover them with a Rx for your doc.

Which procedure did you have sleeve or by pass? Have you tried the Patches? I am in the process of deciding on which one I see my doctor on the 20th of this month excited.

I think you should speak to your nutritionist or doctor. I had the sleeve surgery 12/8/2016. I feel great and actually can eat everything fish, shrimp, salmon, beef, pork and brown rice. Lost approximately 35 pounds and feeling great. First 3 weeks I was told not to left nor more than 10 pounds. I actually went on my 3 week post op visit with doctor visit and I was told not to left up anything heavier than 10 pounds for 3 more weeks. I was also informed that I could only do strength training like ropes, elliptical and treadmill but no weights. Sorry be careful and don't rush to lifting.

Have you tried the Citrate Vitamin D and calcium chews? The are good. I also ordered Vitamin Patches that stick on your body. They arrive sold on this website and http://www.patchmd.com/

I am 6 months post op and have used PatchMD from the start. The Multi and B12. I just had my first blood work completed and everything was normal. It's a small patch you put on your body everyday it's much easier than swallowing pills on a daily basis.

I was prescribed B12 nasal spray that I do once a week and then they throw in my Multivitamin, Calcium and Iron that dissolve in your mouth. It is only $25 a month with my insurance.
