Remember we all are different and we do need to have our bloodwork done at least quarterly the first year, semi annually the second and annually 2 years post - forever.  When bloodwork does comes back with a problem, have it retested before you make adjustments to your regime.

Morning - 1 mens multi, 500 iu E, 1000 B12 - pill, 2 TBS Flax

I take an iron pill once a week.

My blood work has been normal,

I like your idea of using a tray for all the pills. Good visual. I may adopt that.

Morning - get up, take my multi chewable, 1000mg sublingual B12.
10am - 1 Chewable Calcium Citrate
Lunchtime - B1 capsule, 1 Calcium Citrate
5pm - 2 Calcium Citrates
Bedtime - 1 chewable multi vitamin

I just finished my Flintstones, and have started my Bariatric Advantage ADULT chewable vitamin.

I take a chewable multi-vite (trader joes), a calcium (Citrical Petiet), and a b-12+folate (trader joes) under the tongue on my way out the door in the morning. I keep a chewable iron (natures pantry) in my pocket which I take around lunch or sometime in the morning when I remember it.

I put two doses of calcium citrate powdered (UpCal D) in a large water bottle which I sip on during the day. I love the way my cloudy water grosses out my students! But honestly, they seem very intrigued with my healthy acts, and love telling me that they took their vitamins that day too! Last year a student said he takes a vitamin because "his mom don't cook him no good food." yikes

Sometimes I throw in some C for good measure, escpecially if everyone else around me is getting sick.

My blood work has always come back clean.

Rather than be specific about it, I'll just say that, between my meds and my vitamins, I take 27 pills a day.

2 flintstones in the morning right after the tooth brushing is done
2 400mg calcium citrates at night right before I go to bed.
b-complex sublingual drops on the mornings when I think about it
b-12 shot in the ass once a month

I used to take iron, but it was causing a pile up in the brown lane, so I'm going without it for a while to see if I can. Check blood tests next month to see where iron is at.

Mid-Day
1 Bariatric Advantage Chewable Iron (18mg)

My Dr. only has me taking 1 B-12 per week and I notice many of you are taking it daily... makes me wonder why...

Thanks Boner.  All my stuff are chewable.  The calcium and iron is the Bariatric brand chewable also.  Someone posted he takes the iron, calcium, and vitamin all at night.  I thought the iron was to be taken at least 2 hours separate from the others.
