Hi,

I just was approved for surgery - don't have date yet, but someone mentioned I should get protein drink samples?  How do I do that?  Is there a company that provides them?

Thanks!

RNY on 10/21/08 with
Vitalady.com has samples.  I know other sites do too, I'm sure others will chime in.

What I did was every time I saw someone on these forums mention a product they liked,I emailed that company and asked if they had any samples.

Many sent samples and some told me how I could purchase samples. I told them I was preparing for bariatric surgery and was trying out protein product.

good luck and congrats on your approval!

Unjury also has a sample pack you can purchase.  Can't remember how many for how much but it is a good deal.

My favorite protein at this point.

Just remember, what you like today, you might not like postop. I know everything tasted funny postop, but then it does get better.

Dont forget to get some samples of chewable vits for postop. Celebrate and bariatric choice offer trial packs. There maybe others too.

Good luck! Congrats on the beginning of your journey.

Everyone usually raves about the Premiere Protein chocolate shake. The only place that sells them locally is Costco, and I didn't want to get a membership there and then not like the drink, so I emailed them. They sent me one chocolate and one vanilla. It took a little while to get here, maybe 2-3 weeks, but it was free!
