Hey guys, I have a pretty varied workday which can alternate between desk jockey for 3-4 hour sittings (unhealthy)  to over 4 miles of walking around our 300K square foot plant.   The days that I get moving concern me about my vitamins and how to remind myself when it's time to take them.  I will setup my Outlook calendar for daily reminders, but I may not always be there when the reminder goes off. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to signal myself it's time to take the nutrients?  I may also have an issue with the water sipping when I first go back, but at least I can carry a bottle. Thanks men.

I take all of mine (Except my Calcium) either as part of my morning routine- Shower/shave/ breakfast… Or as my bedtime routine…. The Calcium, I keep a bottle in my desk drawer, One in my car, and one sitting at my computer monitor. When ever I see it, I think- "Oh yeah, I need to take that now…" That has worked well for me for well over 4 years… Early on it seemed like a lot of vitamins and such to keep track of. Now that it has folded into habit, I hardly ever even think about it at all. (Others may have very different experiences…) Best Wishes- Dx

My doctors office gave me a sheet of post wls goodies to look at including med alert bands and this little gadget http://www.epill.com/casio.html  it's a pill reminder with compartment for the pills. It's a little expensive, but since you were asking, I thought I would post it Scott
