What Are Some Products That You Rely On For Your Wl Journey?

[Susie in Lima 320]

Hey Friends,

Ok it is getting close to a month since my sleeve yeah! But since I live out of the US at the moment, I don't have access to lots of things that you guys do. I have a friend who is headed to the US in a few weeks and said that she would bring me back 30 pounds of stuff. Could you guys please give me some suggestions of things you really rely on to help you in this journey....vitamins, Protein, foods etc? Things that have really been a big help to you! (Even things to fight hair loss.) Please be specific if you can with brand names.

Thanks for the help! I really do appreciate it!

Don't spend your 30 pounds on ready to drink shakes. Even though everyone love the premium drinks at Costco/sams one box is too heavy. We used to live in Brazil so I know exactly what you are talking about. Those 'carepackets' people used to bring us were the highlights of our year!! I always asked for juicy fruit gum. Silly.

BTW, in High School I was the Girl from Ipamena. Blonde, busty and skinny. I miss that body. SO wasted on the youth!! Lol.

Anyway....can you order a bunch of sample stuff to be sent where your friend will be?

I REALLY like the Power Crunch bars. They taste like vanilla wafers. But I like them so much that I had to limit myself!! I can snap a photo if you are interested.

I got a Blender Bottle from Amazon.com and use it 2-3 times a day. Also, I use the small thermometer that unjury sent me when I ordered their bariatric starter pack (and I now have them sending me Protein cannisters on a monthly basis). Also, I like the Bariatric Support Vitamins (multi, Calcium and B12) that I get from the Vitamin Shoppe.

I also bought two thermoses off Amazon - an 18 oz and a 28 oz version - I use both daily for work. I can fit 2 shakes into the 18 oz bottle with ice, and fill the other with my water/apple juice blend (can't do Water by itself right now). Would recommend that you consider baby-sized bowls/dishes and spoons as well. If you don't have a good blender/food processor, that will help you too.

Protein preference is incredibly personal, as you will see. I like Unjury because it doesn't get as thick or foamy when blended as other powders - this is especially handy the first 2-3 weeks. My favorites are chocolate Splendor (with almond milk) and strawberry Sorbet (with water). I also like their chicken Soup, and need to try their cheese sauce, which is only available in Autumn/Winter. I also like Chike's Orange Creme flavor. I buy both Chike and Unjury directly from their websites.
