I've been taking childrens chewables too since there are NO adult ones here that I can find, however, having been diagnosed with rectal cancer recently and reading up on the importance of antioxidants and selenium, I realise that the children's Vitamin completely misses out some trace nutrients that most adult ones have, selenium being the primary one.

I've decided to stop being a big baby and just take the big adult pill. I dont get stuck on them, I just hate taking pills and gag and carry on like a wimp.

Adults need adult Vitamins I think.

I work in a Dental office ...fyi never ok to put neosporin on your lips. Carmex is good for re hydrating them . Alot of pts at the end of summer get dry peely lips or in the winter.

I agree with Jacqui; we need adult Vitamins, preferably bariatric ones designed for bandsters.

(Jacqui, I hope you're feeling as well as can be expected; you are often in my thoughts and prayers.)

Have you looked at a whole foods store for some liquid vitamins. I saw them just the other day but didn't get any because the bottle was about a quart size and the price was like $40.00 I thought that was a lot of money to spend not knowing if I'd like them or not.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
