what vitamins do we need?

I'm happy to share what brands I use, I just want to say that I'm not suggesting these brands are better than other brands.  I mean, calcium citrate is calcium citrate, makes no difference what brand you use, so get whatever you like, whether it's chewable or one you swallow or whatever.

I use ENS from Celebrate for my multi.  It's a drink mix, kind of like those individual serving packs of Crystal Light.  I think it tastes like Koolaid.  It is a multi but also has 500 mg calcium.  I do two a day.

For my third dose of calcium, I either use Upcal D or Calcet creamy bites.  Upcal D is a powdered calcium citrate that you can put in any drink and it has no taste.  I order that from Colonial Medical online.  The Calcet bites and ENS I order online from Celebrate.

For iron, I use Sundown Perfect Iron.  I order it from drugstore.com but I think some stores carry it.

For vitamin C, I buy whatever brand is cheapest at whatever store I happen to go to when it's time to buy more.

For D3, vitamin A and zinc, I order those from vitalady.com.

I do  B12 shots.

 Thanks Kelly for your quick reply. I'm going to order those vitamins today. You should work in a bariatrics surgeon's office because you really know your stuff!
