Concerning drinks/meals for the first 30 days



Recommended Posts

I have found several websites for the VSG diet and meal plans for the first month. Does anyone recommend a good site to purchase the 30 (or more) days meal kit. I'm not overly worried of costs I just want the "convenience" of having no guesswork and to just follow a plan on paper so to speak. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thank you again.

I would only follow the plan your surgeon or NUT gives you. And I wouldn't buy lots ahead of time because your tastes and tolerance may change.

Good point I am having this done in Mexico and they actually sale the day 1-14 and 1-30 days meal kits themselves and I found many online and virtually all were the same. I was looking to try and find what most people prefer though.

I hadn't heard of the kits until you mentioned them. I'm preop and have been sampling and I do like the Premier Protein and powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury the best so far. Now I'm just going to wait for my date to buy more. I'm going to Mexico too.

I had my sleeve surgery 3 weeks ago today (Nov 10). I made the mistake of buying several cases of Isopure liquid in advance -- thinking that I'd everything on hand. I liked the Isopure liquid but it became tiresome after a few days -- even with 4 different flavors. So I've since purchased Isopure powder and similar Protein drinks from unjury and BariatricPal. For me, variety is the key to compliance. I now buy from different vendors. It has worked for me so far.

You can work this out for free with your nutritionist. In my handbook it list not only recommended shakes, powders, etc.. but it included sample meals plans for each eating stage. Your NUT can help you develop something similar. Call them.

I tried several powders, drink etc.. pre-op but only bought 2 weeks worth for post-op life. I wanted to make sure I liked and could tolerate whatever I purchased. I also did a variety of things including buying kefir from the market.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
