Flinstones multivitamins??

I'm now almost 5 weeks out of surgery and I've been taking the liquid centrum multivitamin twice a day. I didn't get a chance to order the liquid gain and ran out so I went to the store and got the Flinstones complete chewable (not gummy) multivitamin because I've heard that some people use it. I can't call my NUT because it's a weekend and I haven't taken my multivitamin for the day because I'm nervous about taking it. Is anyone using these? Any opinions or suggestions on what to use??

I’m in the pre-op stages. I’ve had 3 weigh-ins 1st was back in June. I’ve had chest X-rays, endoscopy, slept study and blood panel drawn this far.

I’ve Feel like I’m getting nowhere with support from those immediate to me who said they help support me thru this.
Anyone have advice on how to get spouse into same mindset of reducing the amount of junk food (chips, candies, little Debbie Snacks, chocolates) that are being purchased and brought into the house biweekly? I’ve been trying to explain having $50+ of it all is something that makes it so hard to stay away from and causing me to feel like I’m being set up for failure. Plus it’s just my spouse and I in our home. We have no kids being a lesbian couple and it’s rare we have family and friends over to help eat the junk food spouse loves so much.

Well, since my husband is cooking spare ribs for dinner, I'm the wrong one to ask! Hope someone else can give you helpful advice.

Granted I understand my wife not having the surgery and all. I just having hard time with fact she wants to spend money on food I can’t enjoy being they full of the “bad” sugars when she says she wants to fully support me
I take 2 a day but am still pre op. I intend to take them post as well.
