Centrum Multivitamin too large
Hi all, I don't think I ever had the guts to post here. Didn't feel comfortable before I reached goal, and after reaching goal I somehow was a little absent from OH.
I am 10 months out (hmm had to think about this one, I just stopped counting after reaching goal!) and there's something that's been annoying me for a while now. Right after surgery, I had chewable Centrum (which tastes terrible to me with that orangy artificial flavor) and then eventually went back to regular Centrum pills. But till this day, I still feel they're kind of large for my stomach and it's uncomfortable taking them.
Do you guys have any advice on what vitamin to take instead? As you can tell, I am picky about taste, size and also about the content (the vitamins content per se)!
What would you recommend instead? Answers much appreciated as I have to get new ones this week.

If you have the sleeve, you have the guts... (ha, ha, a sleeve pun!)
Anyway, you can cut the Centrum in half. I am leary of chewables because most of them don't have potassium and selinium.
I used to do Centrum but switched to Celebrate capsules. Since they have no iron, I can spread them out over the course of the day easier than the Centrum and I take my iron separately. My labs were good with Centrum but they are better with the Celebrate.
