Hi, I was wanting to see if anybody out there might want or need some nutritional supplements that my doctor required me to use on my pre op diet. They are made by New Direction Weight Control System. I have shakes, Soups, and bars. I spent about $130 on this stuff and I don't want to just throw it away, so if there is anyone that is interested, let me know and we can work something out.

I have:

Shakes- strawberry and chocolate with Fiber

Soups- Creamy Tomato and Cream of chicken

Bars- Crisp 'n Crunch Bars; Fudge Graham and Peanut

Also, if anyone is interested, I have a few powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury sample packets.

Thanks! :)

I may be interested in some of the items you have. I'm trying to prepare for my pre-op diet and don't know where to start. May I ask, why are getting rid of this stuff? Did you not like it? Are you eating all regular foods now?

Thanks,

Bridget

Honestly the New Direction stuff is not that great. My doctor required it for the pre op diet so I HAD to buy seven boxes of it to last me two weeks. After the first couple days, I could not drink anything but the chocolate shake and they would not let me return any of it. I would not get this stuff unless you have to, like I did. I didn't really care for the unjury Protein powder but I know alot of people that really like it. I had bought the sample pack off their website and only tried two of the flavors and I just did not like it. I'm back on a regular diet now so I really don't have to rely on Protein Powder any more, thank God. ;)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
