Grocery List

Any recommendations on things I should purchase for at least my 1st month out???? Vertical Gastric Sleeve Thank You

 I didnt have a sleeve,but my advice is listen to your surgeon and follow what they say to the letter.
Its hard sometimes but just think of the end result. 
Good luck

I did not have the sleeve, however your doctor will tell you what type of diet to be on.  For the first three weeks after surgery I was on a liquid diet.  However, each surgeon is different.

The best advice I got for after surgery was WAIT to buy a bunch of stuff. Stock up for the week after surgery...which you will probably be doing liquids. Buy some chicken broth...I'm talking 2 or 3 cans because you'll be using the same can for a few days. lol Sugar free popsicles and jello...just one box. BELIEVE me you won't be able to get through much at first.

Get some samples of protein...NO BIG CASES. I still have 2 cases of protein RTD that I couldn't stand after surgery. If you buy too much...you WILL end up wasting a lot of money. Your tolerance for some things change after surgery as well. I bought these big cartons of egg beaters and I can't deal with eggs right now. I threw up from it. After the first few days you'll be able to go out to the grocery store (somebody should be with you) and buy more of what you need and like.

You can buy a lot of the small containers...you will definitely use a lot of those.

Ok...ill wait...thanks for the advice...
