I had my Gastric Sleeve July 31, 2017. Two weeks before surgery my Dr. put me on a liquid diet. I lost about 10 lbs. in those 2 weeks. Overall I’ve lost about 65 lbs. My weight loss has slowed down a little, but at least it’s staying off so far. Those first two weeks after surgery were a little rough, liquid DIET, then gradually start soft foods. I’m happy with the weight I’ve lost so far. Hope to have met my goal by next summer.

BariatricPal sells Multi-Vitamin Patches, some include Calcium and have the Iron needed as well. I've used them since a couple of months before surgery. Maybe they'll be a good for you too.

I was having a difficult time swallowing the Vitamins & yesterday I found in this site their store. I ordered the:
- Multivitamin Plus (30 Day Supply) PatchMD × 1
- Vitamin D3/Calcium patch (30 Day Supply) PatchMD × 1

I have been unable to have chewable vitamins due to getting sick from them! Chalky! I don't know how far out you are, but in my case, the doctor said it was ok to take regular Vitamins as long as I cut them in half and suplemment them with B-Complex.
I found one Calcium chewable that's taffy and tastes good. It's from Bariatric fusion berry flavor chewables.< br> So I have mainly been taking pills instead of chewables. I'm 4 months post op.

I just ordered vitamin patches & Calcium / Vitamin D supplements. I’ve been having a hard time with other types of Vitamins.
