are you taking vitamins NOW?

What Vitamins are in your daily routine? It was suggested at my seminar (both actually, I went to 2 different doctors at 2 different hospitals) that I start multi Vitamin, Calcium and/or D3. I already had the multi vitamin, I brought a calcium with D3 in it only to discover it was the wrong calcium. I just got in from the store they had a bogo (buy 1 get 1) so I got the D3 and also some Biotin (need my hair to grow!) So once I get clarification on which calcium I should be taking (I thought calcium was calcium) I'll go out and get that too.

I thought the reason for our bands was to take us off of our pills? I seem to have picked up 2 more...lol...j/k, I know these are diffrent...

I was told chewable vitamins, and viactiv for the calcium (I got milk chocolate...its ok, but very sweet). Dont take the vit with the calcium as the vitamin prevents the absorbtion of the calcium. I wasn't told about the others you are taking. :)

They ordered me the pre-op vitamin from bariatric advantage.

I take: multi with Iron (I use one-a-day sours), D3 5,000 IU, calcium citrate with D, Biotin, B1, B12, coq10, Iron, Cinnamon, Ranitidine (like Zantac), birth control, and Ceterizine Hydrochloride (allergy).

All of those are required except Cinnamon, birth control, and Ceterizine Hydrochloride.
