That's not good on the Dr's part. You should be taking a multivitamin once a day, calcium citrate twice a day 600 each time, B12 , & iron if you still have a period. This is what my Dr told me.

Hello Pam,

It's good to read that you're doing well. But, you might want to call around and find a bariatric support group near you. They would be able to help even more. You'll hear different ways people are doing with their Vitamins, maybe someone could give you a copy of their Vitamin schedule. Keep up the good work!
