Do you include the carbs from your daily vitamins in your daily macros total? My vitamins alone are 14 carbs!

Yes, it should be recorded along with everything else, and if one is concerned about carbohydrate counts for whatever reason it should be considered in those totals. It was nothing that I ever worried about.

Can you switch vitamins? That’s a lot. 56 calories too

Yep. I include cals and carbs. And I can't wait for the day I have approval to dump the chewable vits and go with swallowed vits! It's about 10 calories of my daily calories and 25% of my daily carbs (2g c for multis; 3g c for the calcium cit! Ugh!)

What vitamins do you take and what are the carbs and calories of them?

I actually enjoy the taste of my vitamins but I am curious what vitamins are you hoping to switch to once you get the okay? Do you know the carbs and calories from them?

I switch around but none of them have any calories or carbs. I am at the point where I don’t need chewables though.

But when I did I used the Bariatric Advantage ones 10 calories, 2 carbs.

Could you be more specific?

Me? What more would you like?

Bariatric Advantage is a brand. I used their chewable multi without iron.

I mean I also take calcium citrate, vitamin d, a sublingual B12.... turmeric/circumin... melatonin at night.

I take their Chewable Calcium Citrate and between that and their multivitamin I get 14 carbs I have to count

The chews have much higher carbs than the regular chewables.

So then you DO Count them?
