I went a little crazy last night (up late again) and ordered a whole bunch for post-op goodies. Vitamins, Protein powders (even though I already have one that I like here), and samples of other goodies like sugar free syrups to be able to change the flavors of my protein drinks. I also ordered the chicken broth protein which I heard is delicious when you are sick of sweet protein shakes. I also got a flavorless to add to other things later. Here is a list of the things I ordered. Anyone tired any of these. I ordered some samples to be sure of what I will like. No matter which surgery I do I know I will be diligent with the protein and vits becasue I already have started all of that a while ago. 1 (1545) Bariatric Advantage Chewable $16.99 $16.99 Multi Formula (High in A,D,E & K) Tropical Flavor 60 tabs/btl 1 (6170) Tor SF Coffee Syrup 750 ml $7.49 $7.49 1 (4110) Vitalady ISOPURE Dutch $1.99 $1.99 Chocolate Sample 1 (4120) Vitalady ISOPURE Creamy Vanilla $1.99 $1.99 Sample 1 (4310) Vitalady ProComplex Chocolate $1.99 $1.99 Sample 1 (4320) Vitalady ProComplex Vanilla $1.99 $1.99 Sample 1 (1646) Global Health UpCalD Individual $15.99 $15.99 Serving Packets Powdered Calcium Citrate (500mg) with Vit. D3 (250IU) 120 packets/box 1 (1706) Vitalady Tender Iron (25mg $15.99 $15.99 Carbonyl Iron) 400 tabs/btl 1 (6140) Torani Choc Macadamia Nut $7.49 $7.49 Syrup 750 ml 1 (6602) DaV SF Chai Tea Concentrate 750 $9.49 $9.49 ml unjury Full size ------------------------------ 1 Chicken Soup 1 Unflavored Oh, it was about $100 for all of this stuff but I want to get prepared and have it all here. My friend who has RNY 4 yrs ago said to have SF popscicles and the Swanson's chicken broth. She said those felt like heaven to her post-op. I would love to hear how you all are preparing... Gina

Gina, I haven't ordered any vitamins or protein powders yet. A friend of mine was going to give me some samples she had left over. I was going to talk to the nut next week about vitamins. I did order a 7 day pill case and a carrier for my protein drinks whi*****ludes a ice stick to keep it cold and a bottom part to hold the powder. abby

The surgeon I am going to sells the pre-op and post-op meals we are expected to use. Maybe I should say required to use it is part of our charge. I am not sure about the vitamins. I go 2 weeks pre-surgical to about 3 appointments (an all afternoon deal) and one of them is the nutrionist she will fill us in. I did buy a sample pack at the orientation to try out the different soups, protein drinks, jellos ect. So when I go in next week I will know what I want. Judy
