Sounds good to me!

1st Dose:
Vitalady Dry Vit A 25,000mg x2
Sublingual Vit B12 5,000mcg
Vitalady B Complex 50 x2
Vitalady Dry Vit E 400 IU
Zinc 50mg
Kirkland Multivitamin
Calcium Citrate 630mg

2nd Dose:
Vitalady Dry Vit A 25,000mg x2
Sublingual Vit B9 (Folic Acid) 1,200mcg
Vitalady Dry Vit D 50,000 IU
Vitalady Dry Vit E 400 IU
Zinc 50mg
Kirkland Multivitamin
Calcium Citrate 630mg

3rd Dose:
Vitalady Dry Vit A 25,000mg x2
Vitalady Dry Vit K-1 1,000mcg
Magnesium Citrate 150mg x2
Calcium Citrate 630mg

4th Dose:
Vit C 500mg x2
Copper 2mg
*Vitalady Tender Iron + Vit C 60mg + 400mg x5

*I still haven't worked my way up to this full dose yet.

The iron gives me those burnt rubber tasting iron burps, so I take it right before bed, problem solved there.

However, the iron is also making me horribly constipated, to the point where I'm taking miralax and colace daily, and still have developed a fissure. So, this is really what I intend to take once I figure out how my rear end and iron can get along.
 
If, in the meantime, my iron levels drop, I've decided that I might just have to join the legions of iron infusion users... it's not a big deal, in my book, how I get the iron in my body, as long as my levels stay good.

Because I'm mostly still on Vitalady's original DS plan, my costs are pretty close to what she's got figured out on her spreadsheet... somewhere around $85 a month, when I buy the larger containers. That is easily less than I spent every month on fast food pre-DS, so I'm happy!

Waking:

2 Calcium Citrate Only (Vitalady)
1 Magnesium Citrate (Vitalady)
1 Multi-Vitamin (Twinlab Daily One)
