My nutritionist recommends Bariatric Advantage. Ask your NUT if they've got samples for you to try out!

Both Celebrate and Bariatric Advantage are good companies. So is Vitalady.com.
I get my multi at Family Dollar - a generic equivalent to Centrum for just $4 a bottle. I get my calcium citrate at Kroger when they are on sale, buy one get one free - got two bottles for a total of 440 tablets yesterday for $9.49.
I use Sundown Perfect Iron, which is carbonyl iron, which I either buy at Meijer when I have coupons (which I find often) or order from drugstore.com. I use Sundown zinc, too. I get generic vitamin C, wherever I find it cheap.
I buy my D3 and vitamin A from vitalady. I do B12 shots.

I really wouldn't get caught up in expensive vitamins made specially for us people. It can ad up over time and you can usually get what you need for way less by just using normal vitamins from a normal pharmacy.
