Vitamin/protein gummies when?

I was told to start taking vitamins in the 2nd week post-op. There's no requirements about gummies or not, but I bought a whole bunch in anticipation of not being able to take larger pills post op. In actual fact I can take most pills, but I'm going to start with the gummies since they won't last that long here in Japan in the summer heat - so I might as well finish them now while it's cool.

I bought some multivitamin gummies when I'd left my chewables at home a few weeks ago. I've had them a few times no problem and am 9 weeks post-op.

I was put on a vitamin regimen just like the above poster on day ten. I also recently started taking Biotin in hopes of avoiding some of the expected hair loss.

We have to start them the minute we get a surgical date.

Where does everyone get their vitamins/supplements from? I'm curious about ordering from Nutrion direct, $25/monthly with multivitamin, iron, calcium and b12 included, home delivered and automatically sends after you sign up. But sounds too good.



My gummy multi vitamin is 2 g sugar. Is that too high? I only need one a day. Thx!

My nutritionist said gummies are not allowed because the body doesn't absorb the nutrients as well. She suggests chewable only. I use BariMelts. I order them from Amazon and they are tolerable. The Calcium and Biotin are actually very tasty, but I'm hoping to get cleared to switch to a pill at my 3 month post op.
