I am scheduled for surgery on 3/5 and want to start purchasing the vitamins I will need post op.

Which is the best place to purchase all my vitamins? I checked Bariatric Advantage but they were a little pricey :o/

Depends on what kind of vitamins you want.  Are you looking for chewable vitamins?

You can get chewable Centrum at most stores that sell vitamins.

However, you'll probably have to order chewable calcium citrate online.

I buy mine at Costco and trader joes.

Almost all of mine come from CVS, where I wait until a brand is on B1G1 and I save up coupons.   The only things I buy online are iron (because I wanted the carbonyl type that doesn't make you constipated) and  calcium citrate chews (because I can't find them anywhere else).

You can buy carbonyl iron at stores.  Sundown (yellow bottle) is one brand.  Another brand is Feosol, but it also comes in ferrous sulfate, so you need to read the label.

I think CVS carries both of those.

Me too.  I just ordered a six month supply of multis and calcium from them.

I use the Bariatric Fusion too. I order from Bariatric Choice because of the free shipping on orders of $49.00.
