List of necessities and pricing

Happy Saturday everyone!

So, my insurance is going to be covering the surgery (once approved) and now I'm sitting here wondering what the grocery shopping bill will be like for me. What is the average epic that you all spend on necessities for this surgery? Protein shakes, Vitamins Etc. I know this kind of seems like an odd question, but I don't want to going to sticker shock right after surgery LOL

    I spend a lot less on food now but right after surgery and for the preop diet the shakes got expensive but it probably averages out.

    Oh and a food processor to puree things.

    Garage sales and moving sales are great for buying used appliances. I just got my daughter a oster blender, coffee maker and mixer for $10.00. I get premier shakes at BJs wholesale and costco. Good luck
