Personal blender

[be_satisfied 7]

I'm thinking about getting a personal blender, like the nutri - bullet. Is this something I will use much post-op?

I used mine during the pre-op diet, then during the liquid post-op phase. Now at almost 6 months out I use it only use it once a week or so.

I am due to have surgery in December, and I went ahead and got the Vitamix....omg, that thing is amazeballs. No lumps, everything has an awesome consistancy, I have even done Soups, and sorbets in it. The only downside, is it sounds like a jet engine when you go full speed..... it's crazy powerfull. I didn't shell out the full money though, I got a reburished on for much less on the vitamix website itself, and it comes with a 5 year warranty. If you opt for a vitamix, make sure you get it through the website, I have heard problems with the warranty if not purchased through vitamix.

We have a Ninja system. Good price at costco. I don't necessarily use it because of the WLS. My family makes smoothies every day. I am trying to up my calories to level off my weight loss so I will be using it more.

I did not buy it for my puree or mush food stage. If that's your only need then it's a waste of money.

I bought the Ninja mega kitchen system back in April and I use it every day, sometimes twice a day. I love it! It was one of the best purchases I made. I would suggest getting something with high rpm (higher than the Nutri-bullet) - the Ninja and Vitamix are the best.

I use it for my Protein shakes obviously but the other uses are endless. It stays out on the counter and gets plenty of use.
