Chewable Vitamins that dont taste horrible?



Recommended Posts

  1. Centrum chewables...about $9 for a 3-month supply
  2. Flintstones complete (not the gummies)...take 2 per day

The best thing is that these can be found over the counter at any Walmart, Target, Walgreens, or supermarket in most cities.

I have some of the Bariatric Fusion mixed berry flavored vitamins... they're not terrible. They kind of remind me of the Flinstone's Vitamins. I also have some of the BariMelts calcium/magnesium chewable and they taste ok to me too. Like the orange Flinstone's (I always liked Flinstone's vitamins... maybe I'm weird lol)

The "FLINTSTONE Vitamin taste horrible!! When I went to my New Bariatric Center, which I had been going to my Surgeon's office, anyhow the new Dr. told me to take 2 flintstone Vitamins plus Iron. MAN O MIGHTY those are yucky to say the least. I have used Celebrate mostly every since I had my RNY. I buy the capsules and I was told by my DR if they are to big to swallow you can open them and sprinkle it on whatever you want. But I have not had any problems with swallowing them. I figure that I went thru major surgery and I need the Bariatric vitamins I have seen past WLS peeps (like 30 years ago) who are having bad things going on because they didn't use the vitamins that were needed. I don't want to make any mistakes. It might take years before you notice something is wrong. Make sure to get all of your blood work done. It is so important. Have a great day!!

I think the Flintstones Complete taste good. Different strokes for different folks. :)

Anyhow, since I have a sleeve gastrectomy, I don't have the malabsorptive component that would necessitate use of bariatric Multivitamins.

Like you said, Different strokes for different folks!! Because I had the RNY I definitely don't want to take any chances. I don't know which surgery Micky701 is having but I think we covered all bases.

Was taking several different store bought Vitamins as I couldn't find one Vitamin that had it all until I took the Facebook vitamin challenge. Now I take two chewable watermelon Celebrate Vitamins a day and am so glad I do. Check them out, they have different flavors.

Has anyone tried the Celebrate 3-in-1 multi Vitamin powder? I am considering doing the citrus for the first 3 months after surgery? Opinions?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
