I didn't like any of the ones mentioned above. My husband uses Opti-Source, which isn't the most recommended, but they don't taste awful. I can't stomach those either. I am currently taking Gummy One a Day's as it is all I can take. Someday, I hope to take the ones they recommend, which are called, Fushion. Until then, it's gummies for me!

For Vitamin with Iron I use the Flintstone Complete It has Iron. NOt wild about the taste but is one a day anyway. For Calcium I have been taking VitaFusion Calcium 500 mg Gummy - I take two at a time 3 times a day. For B-12 I found it cheaper to get a vial from the pharmacy. There is a 10 month supply and I inject myself. NO biggie. The cost for the B12 is about $11.00 for a 10 month supply and about 20 cents for each syringe.

I am a huge fan of Celebrate chewables, actually kind of yummy! I have also tried Bariatric Fusion's chewables; they are pretty good too but Celebrate tastes better and has much higher levels of everything we need. Hope that helps!

Is that a calcium citrate gummy? or calcium carbonate? I really need calcium. I can't stomach the Bariatric Advantage ones.

I got some of the Opti-Source at Walgreen's the other day just to try... I've been enjoying my One-A-Day gummies (I take 2 a day), but the Opti-Source has higher levels of stuff for bariatric surgery patients, and I think they're okay. I got the citrus flavor, and it tastes sort of like Tang from when I was little. They're not Gummy, but they're chewable, and I can't taste any of that nasty stuff most chewables have (is that the B Vitamins that taste so gross?). These are okay.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
