Oh I forgot

I need advice as to brands and types of vitamins I should be taking after my surgery,  Anyone with suggestions, I am all ears,  because I am clueless. Thank you

I am lap band but I use a chocolate vitamin chew that I get at Wal-Mart.  They chew up real nice.  Come in a purple container and have several flavors.   Jennifer

Hi Nikki, I get Centrem Silver chewables (Watch WalGreens ads - sometimes their store brand is buy 1 get one free) form my multi viti. I found a chewable Calcium Citrate by TwinLab that I purchased online. If you are having rny - they do not recomend to take calcium with Carbonite. I also take a b-12 under the tongue (500) once a day. I think  you only have to take it 2 times a week - I take it daily. I also chew a benifber and take prilsoc (doctor recommended for 6 months postop). They do make bariatric viti that are available on line but I found they are expensive.

I swallow most vits so don't have chewable info. I do take Citrucal lemon chews, 2/day and then I swallow two Citrucal tablets at night too. I take one Sam's Club Prenatal multivitamin, one B-Complex and one Chromium daily and take b12 under my tongue 4 times a week. I do use stool softeners (generic from Sams) or I'd never poop!!! I've always had good labs on this routine so I don't vary.
Hugs and good wishes on your surgery.
