My surgeon gave me 3 months supply bariatric chewables and sublingual b12 but I was told to start them 3 weeks post op. I am only 1 week out and really struggling with energy. When did hall start taking your vits?

started them 3 days after surgery. my nutritionist stressed them and since they are all mainly chewable, i wasn't scared of swallowing pills.

All mine are chewable so I'm not sure why I was told 3 weeks!!

mine are also chewable. I have been taking them since day one

Why wait? I was taking vitamins and supplements from the day I went home.

I started 4 days after surgery with liquid vitamins.

I'm totally starting them then. I am drained and need something to hopefully build me up. Thanks everyone!

I was able to start vitamins when I was on purees.

Several of us have found that the Vitamins make us nauseous. Your doctor may want your tummy to have a little more time to heal before taking the vitamins. Hopefully, you'll have no trouble.

Make sure that you are getting enough fluids. Dehydration will zap energy. And, by the way, you just had some major surgery!! Be nice to yourself. Rest!! Your energy will come back.

Good luck!
