Hello, wondering when you go to costco what are some good things to buy for pre and post op? I go in there and feel overwhelmed...🙂

costco has amazing veggies. They also sell a veggie tray with carrotts, broccoli and califlower plus ranch dip, The ranch dip is pretty low in sugar too.

I went to costco yesterday for toiletry items...and it’s the absolute worst for WLS patients I feel like pre-op or directly post-op lol. I may feel this way because I am on liquid diet too

but i can only think of their Protein products and Vitamin supplements for directly pre-op/post-op

Peeled, deveined, uncooked shrimp (frozen); organic chicken breasts (freeze); wild caught salmon (frozen); cod (frozen); fruit (frozen); asian stir-fry vegetable mix (frozen); Roa's spaghetti sauce; Premier Protein shakes; canadian bacon; organic eggs, and gas for your car.

I get fresh fruits, veges and ground beef from local market. Otherwise, its costco for me.

My go-to items at costco are Protein Shakes, Protein Bars, ground turkey, frozen chicken burgers, frozen green Beans, Vitamin Water zero, cheese sticks and fresh fruit/veggies. I also get my Vitamin D, probiotic, gasX and Miralax there. Yep - we shop at Costco far too frequently!

A word of caution....I stocked up on Protein Powder and drinks before my surgery and afterwards I couldn’t stand the taste. So maybe be cautious how much you buy for afterwards until you see what your taste and tolerant level is.

Chobani yoghurt drinks are pretty good!
