 I would like to see some answers to this too.  I've been thinking about it but I've been too lazy to put them in.  It's probably a good idea.

I don't, though what I take, Emergen-C has some sugar and salt in it.  I've thought about it but I don't take it every day and it's so minimal.  It's more of a boost because it contains the vitamins I'm getting in food already.

I log my protein powder because it's protein and I take it with juice. 

I take centrum every day and have never logged it.  I agree with mrsdagle's logging of protein powder, though.

I don't log my daily multi-vitamin that I take.  I do log my metamucil since that is 20 calories and fiber (which I never seem to get enough of) and when I take a protein powder (2-3 times a week) I log that as well because it's a lot of protein and more than a few calories.  When I look at my analysis I mentally add in the multi-vitamin to the totals.  They aren't tallied up for the week or month so I just try to scan them to see the "trend" .

I log my multivitamins and calcium supplements to track my vitamin nutrition. Omega 3 supplements have calories, so they should be logged.

I log them to log my vitamin and nutritional intake, but not for calorie counting.  

 

I take gnc's Womens multivitamin, its the best around. You take 2 big green capsules a day. Ive also started taking HydroxyCut Hardcore ( I know diet pills are bad to the cc community) but I have been stuck in a month and a half long plateau and needed something to kick start my weightloss again. Its far "lamer" than when I tried it with Ephedra but it was too much then, The hydroxycut will make you more energized, less hungry, more poopy, lol. You HAVE to take a multivitamin with it and drink a TON of water.
