Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Food shopping



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! I am 13 months post op and am buying numerous products online for my "diet". Some of my usual sites are vitacost, DietDirect, Netrition, MyBariatricPal, and MyBariatricPantry. I'm curious if anyone out there has other sites they buy things from . I am spending a small fortune ordering from these places, as the things I get can't be found locally. All the things in stores like GNC etc., are mostly for Vitamins and things for athletes and body builders. Great for Protein, but terrible in other categories. If you have any suggestions you could pass along, I would be grateful (so would my bank account!)

Thanks,

Cassie

Excellent place that a few gym buddies use with confidence:

GNC has priced themselves outa my range on a lot of stuff.

I am buying Multivitamins from GNC but I buy them on-line and I wait until they have a "Buy one, get one free" sale. I no longer use Protein shakes because I am able to meet my Protein goals from my meals - I am 3 years post-op RNY. But I sometimes use Quest Protein Bars that I buy bulk over Amazon.< /p>

I was shocked just today when I was at Bed, Bath, and Beyond when I noticed a whole section near the Vitamins, etc. Lots of Quest bars, chips, and pretzels, Kay's chips, etc. I don't know the cost comparison, but it might be worth checking out.....check bb&b online too.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
