Tip/Trick for taking vitamins

Part of my BOTT mindset was to make absolutely certain I took my vitamins.  I was pretty good about it before but I wanted to be even better.  It isn't that I didn't want to take them but I'd get busy and before I knew it I was behind for the day.

I'm sure most of you have a system in place for you.  Just an idea that has really worked for me....I bought some of those daily pill holders.  I had some before but they were in the kitchen and I didn't see them as often as I needed to.  I moved them from the kitchen to right by my laptop.  I look at them all day long so I have a constant reminder to take them.  From doing just this simple thing, I've been 100% on my vitamins this week.

Yet again, BOTT - thanks for the motivation!

Cathy, I too bought one of those about a year ago and it has really helped me to keep better track of my vits. I like the fact that on Sunday I can put all of my vits in for the whole week and have no worries!!!!! Also, sometimes I forget during the day what I've done (just do things subconciously I guess) and now I can just flip up Saturdays lid and see what I"ve taken and what I still need to take!

Hi,

I have daily containers too.  I also have an alarm set on my phone to remind me to take them.  Most of the time I remember, but not always.

Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.

I set up my pill holders every week. I even got a small compact version(@Vegas Obesity Walk) and I keep it in my purse...in case I run out and forget to take vits in morning. It has come in handy a couple of times.

OMGGG that is such a great idea!  I have mine in the bathroom by my toothbrush but, I'm so busy in the mornings with 2 kiddos that I forget to take them.  Even though I have a *pill box* and set my vits up for the week I still forget to take them.

I'm off and on my laptop all day so that's really going to help me if I move them!!!!  I'm proud of myself......I've not missed my vits. since last Tuesday!

Super cool!  Thanks!
