I have my surgery on August 27. What do you experienced post op peeps recommend for vitamins and calcium? I was told no gummies. Any brand you like best?

Search the threads for vitamins there are many people prefer, I had a very hard time after and made the mistake of over buying before hand now have a lot of liquid and chewables wasted. You can get some samples free...good luck!

I don't like the taste of chewables or gummies so I went with capsules.... Garden of Life Vitamin Code for Women. It's whole food based, not chemically synthesized and contains Probiotics and enzymes. Has better vitamin levels than the bariatric ones my surgeon recommended. Source of a Life Gold is another good whole food based vitamin that comes in chewables, liquid and tablets.

As for calcium, I was taking Solaray calcium capsules that I would just open and mix in my Greek yogurt or Protein smoothie. But my calcium was high on my 6 month labs so a I stopped taking them.
