I'm adding super fine ground flax seed to foods.

But am missing my fish oil, so considering gummies.< /p>

Where do you get the gummies (what are they called?) and how much fish oil does it give - I was taking nearly 3000 mgs. GREAT idea on the flax seed and i HAVE some - 2 tbspns 2400 mg. Is that what you take?

Also can you take the gummies if you are on mushies post op? or after fills?

I have no problem taking these pills, even though I have good restriction...go figure. Anywho if I weren't able to swallow the big ones, I'd also try to see if there were gummies available. I also know a few people who take "shots" of the oil once a day to get it out of the way.

Hi,

I have asked this question several times. I need my Omega 3 oil. gummies? ?? Where can I get some info. I do not like fish so I need a supplement. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.

I take an Omega 3 oil, 1 teaspoon a day. It does not taste fishy at all, just tastes like I have drunken oil!! It's by Carlson and I bought it at a natural nutrition store.

costco has Omega 3 gummies that I just bought along with the Gummy Vitamins. They are by "Lil Critters". They taste fine. I also bought a liquid Vitamin from a friend who sells "Pure Encapsulation" Vitamins, purecaps.com I like the gummies the best. I haven't tried taking a fish oil pill yet.. I've taken tylenol and that went down ok.. not sure how the big fish oil pills will go down though!

Here is a link to Amazon, that sells the same thing:

Why not get it from food instead of a supplement. I eat an egg most days and also eat lots of fish.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
