Bariatric store order came in today!



Recommended Posts

Hey guys! Today, I am two months and 4 days post RNY, and everything is going really well. I've had no complications, very few tummy issues of any kind, and I've lost over 40 pounds. I've been very lucky!

I'm writing today to tell you all about my order from the new Bariatric Pal Store, and to give a little review for anyone who has been curious and thinking about ordering some stuff. I placed my order in the evening 4 days ago. The site is very clean and easy to use, and checkout was simple.

So far, I'm very satisfied. I ordered the beef bouillon, beef Soup with Pasta, chicken soup with pasta, variety pack of hot chocolate (which includes amaretto, cinnamon hot chocolate, regular hot chocolate, mint hot chocolate, mocha hot chocolate, and raspberry hot chocolate), and the cheese steak macaroni entree. All of the Soups and the bouillon have 7 packets each and 15g of Protein per serving, plus very low amounts of carbs, and low or no sugar.

So far I've only had a chance to try the beef bouillon and I was very pleasantly surprised - I knew it probably wouldn't be horrible but I was willing to put up with a less than delicious taste for the really good nutrition facts and protein amount. However, it's really, really good! It tastes exactly like any other bouillon, only it's actually good for you and helps with our protein needs!

I was also pleasantly surprised to open the box to find several flavor samples of Bariatric Advantage brand calcium chews, chewable multis, and chewable B12. There was also a sample of the black pepper turkey Jerky AND a sample of the chocolate truffle Syntrax Nectar. I was not expecting all of this, but I'm really happy about it, as I'm pretty new to the bariatric lifestyle and still in the middle of the learning process in terms of what I like and what I can't stand.

I've been adding all the nutrition information to the Myfitnesspal.com database, as all of this is pretty new, so anyone who uses Myfitnesspal and orders food or shakes from the BP store may have to add things in as they go along, but it's a pretty simple process, luckily.

I would love to hear other reviews of foods or drinks you guys may have gotten and tried from the BP store.

Thanks for reading!

Abby

      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.
