Hey Everyone! Getting ready for my October 13th surgery! Super excited! I want to get some things I will need for the house so I am looking to see if anyone knows in best buys on Isopure and Protein powders and ready made Protein Shakes. If you can think of anything else I could use or may like please send it my way!! Thanks in advance!

I like the banana Isopure, I buy it from Amazon. I found that they seem to have the best price on it. I found most of the ready to drink ones have some carb and sugars where the Isopure does not. I think it is a better choice, and it tastes good too, big plus!

GNC membership. With the discounts and coupons it more than pays for itself.

SAMs club has the GNC Total Lean shakes. The Swiss chocolate is good and the case of 12 was pretty cheap.

      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.
