So guys does anyone here shop in bulk. I sure do. My surgery is not until September but I got my ready to drink muscle milk I got Protein Water. Both of which are ok by my program. I got bai water also ok. Parmesan crisps and veggies all the veggies plus chicken, hamburger and parmesan crusted tilapia ooh looking forward to that one.

Be a little careful of shopping in bulk...cause sometimes your tastes will change after surgery. Things you used to love, you'll suddenly hate and vice versa.

Case in point....there was a chicken broth that I absolutely loved pre-surg.....afterward I couldn't gag it down...tasted like a sweaty chicken armpit. Gave away a dozen cans.

Had a similar experience with orange Jello and a strawberry Premier Protein. Bleh!

I’m having surgery on the 23rd. Now on my 4th day of liquid diet and doing good. I got the Premiere Protein Shakes at Cosco. Way cheaper in bulk! My best idea was freezing leftovers for the last few months, now I don’t have to cook much for my husband!




Excellent idea!

I agree with @Creekimp13. My taste buds changed a lot too and I wasted so much stuff. I bought 5 boxes of SF popsicles and I still have 5 boxes. They were way too sweet for me afterwards.

I’m 5 days Post-Op. I don’t know if my taste buds have changed, cause I’m stuck on this liquid diet still. But I do know that I can’t stand SF Popsicles anymore! I bought a huge case of them before my surgery and now I can’t stand them!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
