We just bought some Flintstone chewables for my son and they taste awful.

I take the Emergen-C Multivitamin, which is liquid. (and yummy) It's not as comprehensive as some of the other Multivitamins, but it's fine for what I need, since I eat a pretty balanced diet overall.

When I find myself consistently falling short on Calcium, I have Viactiv chews.

For Iron, I try to get in a bowl or two of Total Cereal over the course of a week. So far my Iron levels are fine. (just had them tested recently)

The maker of my kids' Gummy Vitamins (which are yummy) and my favorite probiotic (PB8) just introduced a new line of adult gummy vitamins:

NNI Adult Gummy Vitamins I'm going to try some out whenever I happen to run into them locally.

I take the Flinstones w/iron. The taste doesn't really bother me. I am quite childish when it comes to the color though, lol. If I shake out some in the palm of my hand, and there is a red one...I have to take it. There is absolutely no taste difference. Now I see where my kids get it.

      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.
