9 days out from surgery What and when do I start taking vitamins??? When can I start the gym?
At 9 days out, I was taking a chewable multi vitamin from my local cvs. You can start walking around the block anytime you want. I wouldnt start vigorous exercise for atleast a month. This is only my opinion.
You should have been put on vitamins since day one. I don't know if you have The Vitamin shop where you live, but of you do, go there and tell them you need the bariatric multivitamin. If not, you can get them from CVS or Walgreens. As for exercise, for now walk, walk, walk. I started out getting up every 30 minutes and walked around my apartment for 10 minutes. I did that until I went back for my 6 weeks check up. At that point I was allowed to get into the gym. You just have to be careful for a little while because you don't want to rip stitches. Good luck to you.
