Starting supliments after surgery.
I purchased a full slew of vita lady vitamins pre-surgery even though everybody said that this would be way too ambitious to start out with. I am 16 days out of surgery. I have only been taking one multi vitamin but think that I can start to increase that.
What should I add first? I'm thinking calcium and iron, but I don't know.
Are there any that might give me more problems than the others?
Thanks

It took me one and a half years to lose 165 pounds.

I would add the vitamin D3 capsule and a calcium dose. You could also take another multivitamin at night. Start increasing by one or 2 supplements a day. When you get ready to start iron, take 1 capsule for a week, add a second capsule the 2nd week, a third capsule the 3rd week and so on. Work iron in slowly.
