when to start vits?

I'm able to tolerate very soft food and can swallow some pills.I am about 9 days out from surgery when should I start thinking of how about taking my vitamin regimen from the Vita lady?

I'm sure some vets can give you more info about the Vita Lady regimine specifically. But my surgeon had me start them today (surgery 6/19). I cut them into 1/2 or 1/4 just so they are smaller. They said I don't have to crush them. None of mine are chewable. I struggled to get them all in because the nausea patch also came off today. Still working on the last batch. I'm sure the smaller ones are fine to start soon. And maybe see about cutting the big ones down. If you're feeling better I say start them slowly but soon.

Start with your milti vits.  Cut them in half if you can't get them down.  Then start working your way up to more pills every day.  Don't pu****  Do what you can.

Watch out for the vitalady packs.  Take a couple pills, then wait 30 minutes to an hour.  When I was fresh out from the surgery, my system was sensitive to one of those vitamins in every packet.  Since then, my system tolerates all her vitamins well.  But when your system is still healing, it can be intolerant of some types of vits.

Great advice from LadyLucky and jashley. Also remember that you can dump the contents of the capsules into your protein shakes...everything but the B-complex--that one you want to keep tight in its capsule.

I crushed mine, poured it into my hand and licked it then drank something sour. I did this until I could handle swallowing those horse pills. lol

I hate to hijack your thread, but would you guys recommend waiting to start the full vitalady regimen and just start with the most important ones for the first few weeks? I think I am going to do chewable and am trying to figure out what to buy now versus what I will start later. I was going to do the prepackaged ones. I don't want to spend all that money if I am not going to be able to tolerate them all.
