I am having the same problems with my vitamins. I am 6 wks post op and still can't get the multi vitamin powder down and the chewable iron is gross. I am going to call my nut tomorrow and see if I can switch. I agree crystal light is a lifesaver, its all I drink. I love the pink lemonade......

my doc gave me some samples from Celebrate and they are all chewables and the taste is tolerable, I'm thinking of ordering from them but I just bought some Central multivitamin chewables and they taste so good it's like candy lol

Here u go :) its caltrate

that's the very same one I found!! your freakin awesome girly thanks so much!!!!

Check with doc before taking gummies something about we can't absorb them. I am sure someone will ring in and say exactly why we aren't suppose to have them. My surgeon doesn't even start you on calcium till your 3 months post op

wow really? I'll have to make a call in the morning ...thanks so much!

Those aren't calcium citrate & are high in sugar. :( I can't find a chewable calcium citrate locally - only from the Internet. I did find a liquid ca citrate called Wellesse but it is blended with ca phosphate so need to ask my doc about it Friday to see if RNY patients can absorb it. It's sugar free too. The Internet ca citrate chewables are so expensive.
