Start walking everyday no matter if it's dopwn the driveway, around the block, whatever just walk. I think vitamins are a good idea, try to break away from any bad habits like soda, smoking so forth, and get the house in order. You'll be so glad you did!

For me, approval was like turning over a new leaf. Excercise, get into the habit of taking vitamins & supplements, and work on your innerself as well. I starting seeing a therapist to deal with impending changes and it has made a WORLD of difference in my outlook. This way, I can focus on one thing- recovery. Also, my PCP recommended taking high doses of Vitamin C prior to surgery, as this raises your collagen levels, which in turn reduces your scarring. Best wishes!
