Can you guys provide me with some necessities of things I will need once I'm home from being sleeved?

A variety of Protein shakes (don't get a lot - tastes change after surgery), crystal light, broth (or make your own), Powerade zero, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles, protein Water (Atkins Lift), a Blender Bottle, a food scale, gas x, a comfy front closure bra, tea (I bought a bunch of flavors), bottled water (in case I don't like the tap water after surgery), and I bought a bottle that keeps liquids cold or hot for hours (since it will take a while to drink anything).

I didn't go overboard - I hope that I'll be able to go to the store by the end of the week when I start pureed.

Not much, really. If you stock up, you might end up spending money on stuff you no longer care for.

SF popsicles, a couple of gatorades or powerades -- whichever you prefer. A small pack of Protein drinks. SF pudding.

I had surgery on a Wednesday, was home on Thursday, and driving on Friday. I could get whatever I needed at the store once I was driving and before then I was drinking Clear Liquids only, so...

I was in the grocery store two days after the sleeve. I cannot tell you how much I threw out, when I overbought at Sams Club, and did not use. Bouillon and FF soups were our go to favorites. My scale is in the drawer never used. Protein bars were not a favorite, and some went in the trash. I made the mistake of putting Premier protein shakes in the hot garage, and they spoiled. Lived and learned. I thought I was stocking a storm shelter!

heating pad and a digital food scale

What a fat person thinks are adequate supplies FAR exceeds what a newly sleeved person actually needs.

You should have seen what I used to buy when they were calling for a day or two of snow vs what I buy now. It's insanity.

So that's why I have so much food in my copboards!?! 4 months of snow and darkness heading this way.....

I went and got some Jello boxes, Protein drinks and tiny containers today. Itty bitty ready made jellos will wait for me when I get back from surgery. I already had a digital scale and protein shakes.
