So guys does anyone here shop in bulk. I sure do. My surgery is not until September but I got my ready to drink muscle milk I got Protein Water. Both of which are ok by my program. I got bai water also ok. Parmesan crisps and veggies all the veggies plus chicken, hamburger and parmesan crusted tilapia ooh looking forward to that one.

Be a little careful of shopping in bulk...cause sometimes your tastes will change after surgery. Things you used to love, you'll suddenly hate and vice versa.

Case in point....there was a chicken broth that I absolutely loved pre-surg.....afterward I couldn't gag it down...tasted like a sweaty chicken armpit. Gave away a dozen cans.

Had a similar experience with orange Jello and a strawberry Premier Protein. Bleh!

I’m having surgery on the 23rd. Now on my 4th day of liquid diet and doing good. I got the Premiere Protein Shakes at Cosco. Way cheaper in bulk! My best idea was freezing leftovers for the last few months, now I don’t have to cook much for my husband!




Excellent idea!

I agree with @Creekimp13. My taste buds changed a lot too and I wasted so much stuff. I bought 5 boxes of SF popsicles and I still have 5 boxes. They were way too sweet for me afterwards.

I’m 5 days Post-Op. I don’t know if my taste buds have changed, cause I’m stuck on this liquid diet still. But I do know that I can’t stand SF Popsicles anymore! I bought a huge case of them before my surgery and now I can’t stand them!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
