    Oh hun... I hear ya. I take a whole handful of vitamins every day, and I found it really really difficult during my first tri. if you need to space them out during the day so they're not all at the same time, that sometimes helps. Or maybe try taking them in the middle of or just after a meal (assuming you're eating regularly - I'll admit I struggled a bit!) Just relax and don't get too overwhelmed by it all. if you miss a day here and there it's not the end of the world!

    Yup me too! I take one tab in the morning after breakie with lemon cordial and it always gets stuck half way. And they kind of repeat on you and I can taste the fish oil when I burp which makes me want to chuck. Once I did chuck it up and it does burn and taste bad, so best to try and think of something else while you do it. Cause if you think about gaging on it when you try to swallow it you most likely will. I am not saying its in our heads, I just think we panic and things just get tighter again.

    Why dont they make them smaller?
