Hey Everyone I got my date and approval good to go for 3/23. I'm confused about Vitamins. Any ideas were to get them ? And do they all have to be chewable/liquid? And anyone else having trouble with the optifast,,, I hate it but dealing

Source of Life by Nature's Plus is a wonderful liquid vitamin. I started taking it before surgery while I did my Optifast. I feel like it really makes a difference in my energy level. I get mine at a health food/vitamin shop at our Drug Emporium. You can also get it at the Vitamin Shoppe or On-line.

I'm using the orange flavored Centrum chewable. It's ok, I can take it or leave it. I considered the Centrum liquid but it had 5g carbs per dose, and this had 0 so I took it. I'd love a different option, but for now it works.

I can't think of the calcium brand I use... Caltrate or something like that. It's chewable. Kind of like gigantic Tums, comes in 3 flavors to the bottle that aren't great, but better than the Centrum.

I always took GNC vitamins so when I needed a chewable or liquid I tried there first. STAY AWAY FROM THE LIQUID!!!!!! It is SO SO nasty!!! :help: The smell is enough to gag you. The chewables are lemon lime and don't taste too bad. The chewable calcium are cherry and pretty good tasting. They told me they are coming out with a powder in the woman's formula that you mix with a liquid. Might try that next time.

Sunni, I live in OKC and I'm looking for a dr. in this area. I've finally decided to do the banding (after reading comments on this site for several weeks. Would you recommend Dr. Keith? I've heard his name often. Thanks for any help you can provide. Are you happy with your LB?

I just purchased the spray type of vitamins from vitamist.com.You have to take 2 sprays in your mouth 4 times a day.Has anyone else used these ,will they provide enough nutrients or should I just stick with the chewables.
