    Lightbulb Please share your Vitamin Brands

    My 1 month surgiversary is in 2 days, and I'm having a difficult time taking my vitamins. They make me sick to my stomach when I take them. I must admit, there are days that I've skipped, and I'm about to make a chart so that I can make certain that I'm taking them.

    My question is, what exact vitamins are you taking daily?

    I was taking:

    Celebrate Multi-AGB (includes Iron) Blackberry

    but the flavor made me so queasy, that I just gave up.

    Now I'm taking:

    Celebrate Multivitamin Grape
    Celebrate Iron + C Grape
    Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate/ Wild Cherry

    The BA products taste a lot better than the Celebrate products.

    Can you please tell me what you're taking, and what you think might be better? I really need to take my vitamins without avoiding them.

    Thank you so much!

    I'm 6 weeks post-op and still on Flinstones chewables but I'll be moving on to adult vitamins soon.
    My 15 yr. old takes Gummy Vites and sometimes I pop those in my mouth as they taste really good.
    The thing is if you take children's vitamins you have to take them twice a day.
    Next week I have to start taking adult vitamins including supplements.
    I'm not religious about taking vitamins either but I'll have to start keeping on top of it. Lorna

    look into "solar ray", they have a great line of lozenge, basically they are chewable and taste pretty good.
