Vitamins

Hi Everyone!

Today I had my last appointment with my surgeon! I also found out I'm having the bypass and not the sleeve anymore! I was curious to know what Multivitamins does everyone take on here? Did any make you feel sick! Taste good?

Please let me know! Thank you

I take the fusion multi Vitamin, tastes like a Flintstone chewable.

I'm taking the children's complete chewable that's the walgreens store brand. They don't taste bad. Will probably switch to Celebrate multis after this bottle's gone.

I too changed from the sleeve to bypass. I am so thankful now because I got rid of all my comorbitities.

For the first 3 months i took a chewable Multivitamin, I believe it was Centrum and had added Iron. It tasted like most Vitamins but it was not bad. Then, I was switched to a simple generic multivitamin that has added D3.

I also take Calcium citrate chews by Bariatric Advantage. They are expensive but necessary and they taste pretty good. Almost like a starburst but not as sweet. I have tried them all but strawberry is my favorite.

Then i take D3 once per day, B1 (this is because my thiamin was low at the 6 month stage) and B12 sublingual.

With the exception of my calcium chews, everything is very inexpensive. I buy them at walgreens on a buy one get one free or buy one get one 50% off.

So at this point, the only one i chew is the calcium. the rest i swallow. They don't bother me at all, in fact vitamins used to so i was not looking forward to it but it has been no problem.

The B12 i take once per week and it is a liquid that goes under the tongue for 30 seconds before you swallow it. Again, no problem to take this one.

I take the bariatric advantage calcium chewy bites 500's and BA EA chewable multi in mixed fruit flavor. I like it. I also use patch Md iron, and vitamin D/calcium, and glucosamine chondroitin(because since wls my joints have all gone to hell...actually they already were hell I just couldn't hear them screaming from all the pain of being overweight. Now I hear them!)
