One thing you may not know about bariatric surgery patients is that most of us will have to take nutritional supplements for the rest of our lives. This applies most especially to gastric bypass patients whose nutrient/calorie absorbing section is bypassed with the surgery.
And since our stomachs are made to be so much smaller than they were originally, we can't swallow and digest pills in a normal fashion. Which leaves chewables. (Gummies are out. New tummy and lack of digestive acids don't do well with gummies.)
Celebrate Vitamins are ones that the WLS Center carries. So I surfed on to their website (Click HERE to go) to check things out. For $3 you can order a sample pack of their products. And, they give you 10% off your first order so you can potentially put that $3 into your purchase!
I'm going to try to take a picture of what all they sent me. I was totally blown away. I'm going to list it so that if you are looking for chewables for yourself or someone else, you can see what a great deal this was!

A few of these I have already tried as I got a few samples from the WLS center. But I will be sure and report back on what I like and don't like. Take my opinions with a grain of salt. I am typically a lot pickier than most when it comes to flavors and the textures of edible items.
