They gave me the Iron plus the calcium we get them free here

I had to buy my own. I found some dissolving ones, but they weren't a match to how much of each I needed. I would have been taking so many of them a day. I have to do chewable or dissolving. Powder and liquid would be best to get directly in the blood stream. But it's not required.

Wow you guys are prepared it's making me feel really bad. My surgery date 9/15. I just bought my Vitamins and GENEPRO on Amazon. I'm afraid to buy shakes because Everyone warns of change in taste and I'm the one with a sensitive stomach to begin with. Seeing you picture now have me freaking out .

What products are above the sports drinks?

Oh those are containers. One holds my baby food dishes, measuring spoons stuff like that. The other holds meal prep portioned containers.attachicon.gif 20160823_093055.jpgattachicon.gif 20160819_001037.jpg

Awww, no need to freak out. I just won't have help when I get home, so I'm preparing for after as well. I won't have anyone to run to the store if I need anything. And I wanted to have it all in one area, so I won't be rumbling thru cabinets looking for broth and noodles, lol. Good luck with your surgery

Oh and about the shakes, I have to be on 2 a day, before and after surgery. So that's a months supply for me on the shelf. costco had them on sale so I saw it as a blessing from God and got 3 cases. I also have 2 different flavors of vegan Protein powder to add to them if my taste does change. I also bought some zero cal Water Enhancer made with stevia to add flavor to the unsweetened applesauce

@@Aleathia, well, day 1 liquids in the bank, and man, it works! LOL. -5 lbs! I'm sure it's just Water weight if I were to go back to eating "normally," but who wants to do that!

I kept really busy yesterday and was pretty happily surprised I wasn't *too* hungry/distracted. I hear after day 3 it's much easier.

How are you finding it?

I haven't weighed myself yet, will weigh tonight before work. But being at work all night is a struggle. I use to eat out of boredom. So I did find myself getting a Lil hungry, but I pushed thru. Drinking my vanilla shake with a Lil coffee added so I can go home and clear my closet. I just slept after work yesterday. Congrats on the 5 lbs

Good luck on your surgery tomorrow! Don't forget to take chapstick with you. I read that your mouth gets very dry and your lips may start to crack. Praying everything goes well
