How to Shop in Prep for Procedure

[jatmagg 7]

Hi all! Haven't been on in a while in fact have been in denial that this is finally real. After 1 yr 9 mo of hang ups I am scheduled for my VSG on 8/30. Any suggestions on what to get, buy and stock up on for when I get home? I'd like to know your recommendations of Protein Shakes, Vitamins and supplements. Any 'musts' on your shopping list? I look forward to hearing from you and am excited to have a forum of support. TIA Ty:)

Buy and stock up on very little. Purchase as you go because you might get bored, your tastes might change, and you will definately have moods. I had extra Protein for months and I ended up throwing it away.

I recommend getting a variety of samples/single servings until you find what you like. Also, be aware that your tastes may change post-op.

That said, some things I recommend you try:

Syntrax nectar (see if you can get a sample pack directly from the manufacturer so you can try the different flavors. My favorite is fuzzy navel.)

Premier Protein ready to drink.

ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates (these were great during my clear phase).

ProtiDiet hot chocolate.

ProtiDiet Tomato basil and creamy chicken Soups
