AuntJoJo64 1 Posted October 2, 2016 What are some products that you have purchased for the WLS process? Pre-op and post-op. I see a lot of Bariatric Protein products online and was wondering what is really useful. I don't want to overdue it and buy a bunch of stuff I don't really need or won't use. Also, where do you buy these items for the best price? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laceemouse 631 Posted October 2, 2016 I plan to try several Protein shakes (pre-made and powdered) before surgery. I prefer the ones that let you buy a sample size, you don't want to buy some huge bottle of something you don't end up liking. You are going to get a lot of different answers, everyone likes different things, but keep in mind that many people say their taste buds change after surgery so don't buy too much of anything. You may end up thinking a product you loved before surgery tastes awful, and vice versa. I like the idea of unflavored powders you can mix with regular foods. Most people say they get tired of those sweet shakes really quickly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erp 2,016 Posted October 3, 2016 I bought a sample pack from unjury. It was a good way to try a few flavors without the commitment. I also bought some ready to drink Protein drinks so that I didn't have to prep anything the first few days. Buying one basic vanilla or unflavored powder is a fairly safe bet since you can flavor it with everything from cocoa powder to Crystal Light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
