I took it upon myself to start taking centrum childrens chewable vitamins with minerals, calcium citrate chewable and trying to drink alot of water, just to get in the swing of things, I think it is a good idea to get started on your vitamins to get your body a little extra help and to replenish and help build any nutriants your bldy may be lacking. I dont have a date yet either but it should be soon. Good luck :0)

My doctor put me on Bugs Bunny chewables and I do not have a date either. Also put me on a low carb diet to help shrink the liver. I am drinking water out of a sippy cup to learn to drink slow.

My nutritionist and surgeon had me start the chewable vitamins about 1 month prior to surgery. I guess they wanted me to start the routine and make sure I was getting the proper vitamins in. I can't complain, 4 1/2 months post op and down 97.5 pounds.
