I really would not stock up on too much of anything because your taste will changes, after surgery, I have wasted so much money on sugar free pop sickles, pudding, Protein Drinks as well as Unjury that I am now giving them away to my nieces and nephews, trust me you will get sick of chicken and beef broth and i am only 16 days post opt. I would buy some chicken broth or make your own from chicken, chicken breast, sugarfree pop sickles / Jello. and sugar free applesauce but dont buy to much you already have eggs and your going to need that as well. Good luck.And Peanut Butter is good for you.

I too stocked way too much and darn, I was back in the grocery store 2 days after the sleeve! I am loaded with Protein powders, puddings, Soups, refried Beans, Unjury soups and other things I do not like. Keep it simple. If you have a family to feed the crockpot is great. I have all this Protein Powder and 3 months post op I was told by the NUT to stop eating so much protein. Just remember you will be able to shop and you can order on Amazon and get it delivered in 3 days. You won't be down and out for long. Best of luck!

Yup, I tried to be so prepared and ended up tossing or posting on Craigslist. Don't worry, you can do this. It is good to be prepared, but you just don't know where you are going to be at, so ...

Acbell if you're looking for specifics on Protein Shakes, I think the best tasting one by far is Syntrax Nectar. There are a ton of flavours and no weird proteinish aftertaste

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
