I use the ones made by Celebrate.  They are chewable and not as chalky.  they are a bit expensive but worth the money.

I take one each daily of Multi Complete and Calcium Plus 500

Vitamins are not optional. Think of them like antibiotics for a bacterial infection. You just have to. That said.....
I was able to take vitamins in pill form very early out. I searched for smaller pills, and found some petite calciums after I finished up the chewables. They were about aspirin size and were a Walgreen's brand. See if you can find those. All my other vites were never a problem.

Can you go pill form instead of chewables?

You MUST take your vitamins, they are very important, unless your Dr tells you otherwise.  I got a Multivitamin at Shoppers drug mart Chewable takes great, "Spectrum" brand, & at Costco chewable Calcium, like little fudge, in chocolate or caramel, Walmart has Vitamin B breathe strips you put on your tongue.  Good Luck!

 I take the women's MVI from smoothie king in the morning (they really seem to help with the hormonal swings) and gummy MVI in the afternoon. I take citracal petites 3 times a day -bfk lunch dinner and bariatric choice iron at bedtime. I will prolly change to calcium citrate chews soon just bc they taste good. 

Balancing out the vitamins has been one of the most difficult adjustments for me. I have found that it is necessary to change things up once in a while depending on my schedule. For example I may start taking centrum chewables at lunch bc they have iron in them and take calcium at different times.
