Where do Hoosiers shop for lapband related supplies?



Recommended Posts

I'm trying to figure out where the best prices are for Protein supplements and Vitamins (and anything else we might need/want) are in Indiana. So where does everyone shop?

I don't do Wal-mart.

I have been banded since 10/07 and I buy the unjury Protein mix on line at unjury.com. I think it taste the best and they even have a chicken broth mix if you get sick of the sweet taste of shakes I just mix it with lowfat soy milk (regular milk kills my stomach) and if I want to thicken it up I add a few ice cubes to the blender, 28 grams of protein when mixed with the soy milk or regular ff milk. The price is about a $1-1.25per serving including the shipping and they ship very quickly. I think they even have a discount if you set up monthly shipments. I still buy it as I drink a Protein shake every morning for Breakfast, just easier for me since I work. I use the chewable viactiv Multi-Vitamin and the Calcium soft chews and get them a walgreens. They are chocolate and to me they taste like candy. I don't shop at wal-mart either and I don't really like the GNC brand of protein mix. Hope this helps.

I also like unjury. They have sample size packets so you can try them out with not a lot of expense. I mix the Unjury with skim milk and skim milk ice cubes for added Protein and flavor.

Good luck!

      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.
