OTC Vitamins and Jumping in

[Newme17 3,444]

A couple of questions here.

I need a Multivitamin. I currently take juice Plus supplements and not sure if I need the multi after all. But besides that, does anyone take Alive! and have found their vitamin/mineral levels just fine? I'm quite leery about over the counter Vitamins, like, do they even work?

Second, I'm working on changing diet habits now, but four days in to it, it's a mean struggle. I feel like it's easier for me to just go cold turkey (current diet then start pre-op liquid) when the time comes. Anyone ever do that? If so, do you regret not changing earlier, etc? I do know it's probably better to change now (of which I will continue to try to do) but at the same time, it's freaking hard!

I was advised to take the following vitamins:

Multivitamin twice a day

Calichew with with D3 three times a day

Vitamin D

In addition I take Vitamin C, Vitamin K and a B12 patch

Changing your habits now will make it easier for you after the surgery. Best of luck!!
