I found these on Bariatric Eating webpage.....has anyone here heard of or used them? Just trying to get my ducks in a row before June 26th......I am not a fan of the "gritty texture", so these are a liquid form. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Ive never heard of them. We have been using the Centrum silver chewables that Cathy Carr recommended. They have a nice fruity taste but are gritty when you chew. I really cant do a whole one  yet either.

I have heard of them. As with many things, this is a personal preference item. Some folks love it, some don't. You can certainly try it and see how it works for you. I have to admit, I have never tried this particular brand of vitamins myself.

First good luck tomorrow and yes I use the liquid tropical oasis vitamins over the past year I have tried them all and this is the only one I can consistantly tolerate. I swig one capful a day and my labs were all good for levels.

    Nope, surgery isnt tomorrow, it is JUNE 26th.....LOL!
So you do use the tropical oasis? Cool......one or two caps a day? Their ad said 2.......and do you use their calcium supplement? Do you need or take any other supplements too?
Sorry for all the questions!
I am leaning towards using this.......

Nope, didn't like 'em!!  Actually, I didn't like the grit either, from the chewables, and the Centrum Liquid was just heinous.

My best (albeit poorest) suggestion is to just find something that you can TOLERATE until you can swallow pills.

The other thing I didn't like about the Tropical Oasis is that it thickened up quickly, leaving a bunch at the bottom of the bottle.  Someone suggested storing it upside down, but even doing that and shaking it, it was a costly waste for me.

UGH!  Sorry I couldn't help more!!
