I am a firm believer in Vitamins...but have to be honest I don't know very much about them...lol..I'm a "Woman's one a day" girl.

And suggestions on what you take to stay healthy?

Sylver - My Dr. recommended "Vitaband" vitamins. I ordered them online from "Bariatric Advantage." I am currently taking the Watermelon flavored ones, but be forewarned, they have a tree bark aftertaste. I'm also taking a calcium chew in addition to these vitamins.

Hope this helps!

I found these great adult gummy Vitamins at Target. Taste good and easy to take. Plus I take the calcium chews.

I was taking liquid Centrum, but it can have an awful aftertaste as well. I'm happy with the gummy vitamins. I saw an ad for them in my SHAPE magazine.

Centrum makes a good chewable, but they can be expensive. I was shocked when my surgeon recommended Flintstones chewables!! I thought, "He has to be kidding". He wasn't. I compared their nutrition with other Vitamins, and they are right up there with the more popular varieties. They are a lot less expensive, and seem to taste a little better. I tried the Bariatric Advantage Watermelon and they were HORRID!!! I still have half a bottle in my bathroom that I couldn't gag down one more day..... LOL

Doc recommended calcium citrate as well, and I found a petite size that is easy to swallow. It hasn't bothered my band yet.

I had my blood work done 6 months out, and 12 months out, and it was perfect, so I guess it's all working.

Suzanne, do the adult guumy's have a label name or are they Target brand? They sound interesting.

These are the one's that I have.

Thanks, Suzanne!!!

I take the Flintstones too. I had to laugh when my diet nurse told me to take them. I also take Calcium Citrate. She told me any chewable vit but recommended Flintstones.

I also take the children's chewable's...Target brand. I haven't had the adults gummy but I'm def going to look into them.

Thanks y'all for all the great help!!! My doctor suggested the Flintstone chewables too!! LOL...and it was hard to believe...but I guess I'll be getting some. :0)
