Thanks for any help.
At a recent weight loss support group we had a speaker come in and talk about vitamins. She said that you should take 1200mg of calcium a day (that includes what you get in food products). Therefore I will be taking 2 of her "chewable" calcium tablets (400mg each, one in morning one at night). What you are really supposed to do is suck on them until they are gone (she handed out little samples and this is what the package said). They come in different flavors.

Also, you should take 18mg of Iron a day (post menopausal women should take 29mg). Make sure you take the iron and the calcium at least an hour apart because if you take them together they cancel each other out. This comes in a strawberry flavor that was pretty good...didn't have too bad of a irony taste.

Regarding the multi-vitamin, I will be taking this companies also...the speaker said to take two a day and they are chewable. They also come in different flavors.

This company also sells the sublingual B-12 that I will be taking once a week. This companies website is called bariatricadvantage.com.

Hope that helps!
