Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a liquid Vitamin w/iron. I have had no luck finding one and I really am not doing well with the chewables. I think they taste like chalk. I tried Walmart chewables, Flinstones and a few others and I truly do not like them. I know Vitamins are an important part of our diets and need to find something fast as my surgery date is fast approaching. Please help!

I am in the UK, and am having chewable 'sweet' type Vitamins. They are fruit flavoured jelly like sweets. Quite nice.

All the very best for your surgery.

:tongue2:Hi .. i am using the Vita-gummies (gummy bears) i got it at Sam's Club. They taste just like regular Gummy bears. I take 4 a day. I have to chew them until they are mush of course which is fine because they taste good. I also bought the vita-ball (gumballs) from wal-mart .. i chewed one to see how it tasted and it's really good. I still have a lot of burping all day so i am not chewing the vita-balls yet since i'm afraid it will put more air into my stomach.. i am only 4 days post-op. i could not stomach the chewable Centrum vitamins.. they were awful. I also heard the flintstone children's chewables are good.

My wife found gummi-vitamins, taste just like a gummi-bear - they're great!!!! Sams carries them as does Kroger groceries and probably a lot of other places too.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
