Celebrate vitamins?
Are they worth the price? I saw them advertised on the world according to eggface blog. I can't stand the centrum orange chewables and just started the Flinstones Complete chewables which are not as bad.
Any recommendations on the taste of the chewables or soft chew vitamins? Flavors you liked? My surgeon wants me on chewables for the first year.
Thanks!

we don't need chewables.. as long as you can swallow pills - and they do not bother you ...
maybe first month or 2 or 3 is not that good, but after that- why not?

I used the Bariatric Advantage ones for a while, I think they were berry flavored. Not too bad.
After a few months, I switched over to a non-chewable multi. I did have to split them into several pieces, though-- it took a while before I was able to swallow horse pills again!

I like the Celebrate Chewable Multivitamins in both Grape and Mandarin Orange flavors. I started taking Bariatric Advantage multis after surgery and hated them.

I love my Celebrate vitamins. I know they cost a bit more, but my labs are good. I get all chewables-- and I'm well aware that I don't need chewables-- but I kind of think of them as my treat!! -- which keeps me compliant. I've never missed my pills and my labs are really good. I've been really pleased with my Celebrate vitamins and their customer service.
I use grape multi, cherry calcium 500, b12 sublingual, quick melt D

I took the strawberry pineapple flavored ones for a while. They were awfully sweet, but it was a nice break from the orange Centrum chewables or the pseudo-berry flavored Centrum Silver chewables.
it is just hard to justify the cost when you can get regular (non-chewable) Centrum for $11 a bottle at Walmart (and we don't need chewables). Have you asked your surgeon why (s)he wants chewables for an entire year?
