Post band placement Kitchen must haves



Recommended Posts

I am planning on having my band placed in the next month or two. This month I'm moving out of my house and into my sister's house for approx 6 months while I build a new house. I'm packing up my kitchen right now and realized I should probably ask y'all what kitchen must haves should I make sure to bring to my sister's house. I'm not talking food, but rather appliances. I already put my mini food processor in a box to bring to my sister's house along with a little microwave egg thing to make egg whites. What appliances/kitchen helps could you not live without post band placement??

Items to measure and weigh. Currently using a digital scale, at least two sets of measuring cups, and a set of measuring spoons. Right after surgery my handheld blender for shakes and Soups was very important.

Paring Knife

Chef's Knife

Microplane (zest adds flavor to EVERYTHING)

Wood Cutting Board (solid piece if possible)

6 inch Cast Iron Skillet (propperly seasoned)

2 Regular 8 inch Fry Pans

1 qt sauce pan

Wooden or metal skewers for roasting.

But hey, that's just me.

I use Ice Tea spoons and shrimp forks. They are little but have long handles. It makes taking smaller bites easier. Also, during my pre op liquids I was putting everything in the blender.

Small storage containers...you'll have lots of leftovers. (Or, just be ok with tossing stuff.) Blender, immersion blender, masher thing.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
