    My doctor had me start on chewable vitamins one week after surgery. I'm still taking chewable. I'm not complaining they taste like candy. I'm gonna miss them when I go back to tablets .

Was there are reason you didn't start calcium? I just bought that today Calcium Plus D. I should of bought the chews b/c the caps are HUGE! I will still take my Vita D by itself if the Calcium is contraindicated.

I really don't know why I had to wait that long. I just went by what they said to do in the booklet they gave me. Be sure your calcium is calcium citrate. The bariatric advantage chewable caramel flavor is delicious. Tastes like candy! All my vitamins are chewable, even the iron.
