| Vitamins.
Hello everyone, I know that this forum has to do with our eating issues, but I also know that it has to do with good health habits. I am trying to take my vitamins & calcium on a more regular basis and I'm having trouble with forgetting. I thought that if I could come here and record it each day, when I took my vites, that I would be more apt to remember to take them regularly. They really do help me, to the point of my being able to feel clearly a difference, when I forget to take them a few times. I started yesterday, but I haven't taken them yet today. I have to eat something before I do take them or I'll have nausea. I'll come back here later to report when I've taken mine today. So for now I have taken them for one day. Thanks everyone for bearing with me and join in if you'd like.

Hey Nina- This post reminded me of the vitamins I bought about two months ago....I totally forgot about them and they weren't cheap either! I know that they are SO important and I think I should do the calcium too. This is great because I pledge on the OS thread right here in this forum so I will see this and be reminded! I had a salad so I am going to go take them now (I have to eat too when I take them). Thanks !!!

Well, I did take my vitamins after I ate some supper this evening. So that is yesterday and today that I've taken my vites regularly. I will check in here tomorrow to be held accountable for taking them again. I take one multivitamin and mineral tablet a day. I take two calcium tablets a day. I take one vitamin E tablet a day and for now I'm taking a milk thistle tablet a day to help my liver. I try not to take too many as I know that it can be worse for you than not taking any if you overdo it. But taking these basics everyday makes me feel so much healthier when I do it regularly.

I too, have had trouble remembering to take my Vit...... one of the things that has help me to remember is to put them in a place that I see them everyday and to take them the same time everyday. Like say if you are going to eat before taking them, have them right where you will see them when you are preparing your meal. I'm glad you are taking care of yourself with Vitamins

I forgot to come here until now to tell you all that I've taken my vitamins for today. I'm so happy about that. I know that I'll start feeling alot better soon. I really need to. I haven't been doing so well physically, lately. I'm just gonna keep trying though. I just can't give up. Thanks for being here everyone.

I have some that I bought about 6 months ago... thank goodness they don't expire too quickly When I went to the doctor last week, he prescribed me so many new things that my husband jokingly bought me a pill despenser. Well, I've been using said pill dispenser, and I went ahead and put my vitamin in there too... so far that seems to be working. I guess we'll see.
