It's been a year now since my surgery; I am taking Centrum chewable tablets. I take two tablets a day even though the bottle indicates to take one, I tried taking one a day and I felt fatigued and weak so I started to take 2 a day and I feel good. I have been taking these vitamins since I was post op. I wanted to get a feel as to what vitamins all my January peers are taking. P.S. I also take sublingual B12 once a week and my doctor gives me a b12 shoot once a month Albert

Albert, I take 2 multi-vitamins, Iron, B-12, B-50, Calcium, Clariton D and my birth control every day. I take my b-12 every day. I take one Iron and one B-50 and two celcuim a day. I have noticed when I changed my muliti-vitamin to the one that does not have Iron in it I become very tired. I work for the health department and they check my HGB when ever I ask. Mine has always been on the low side. I try to push the Iron to help it. I think if I started eating Liver I could bost it. Well, hope this helps. Cindy -88 lbs

What brand of multivitamins do you take? My doctor wants me to take the bariatric advantage brand that are made for WLS people but they are a bit expensive, so I wanted to see what everyone else is taking. Alberto

I take Flintsones chewables ,2-3 per day.I take Viactin chews twice a day.I am tired also.My bloods come back fine.I had and still have sleep apnea so it's maybe because of that I tire easily. Stick with the foods with protein in them.I love peanut butter,yogurt,meats. Keep up the good work...!!

I take 1 centrum chewable and once in a while when I remember I drop a calcium citrate in my drink. My blood work came back perfect so no worries here. Dawn -117

There is a great multivitamin that has everything your suppose to have and them some. It was reccomended at my support group meeting.

It contains thiamin 81.5 mg yes thats right si its 5433% of daily rec.,riboflavin 81.5 mg 4794% of daily rec,b6 81.5 mg which is 4075 %, b-12 81.5mg and is 1358% of daily has 500mg of calcium,27 mg of iron which is 150% of daily and a bunch others.
