Pre-Surgery Shopping List



Recommended Posts

Hi All, I've been reading the forums this week, trying to compose my pre-surgery shopping list. Can any veterans help me out and let me know if I'm forgetting anything? Thanks!

Gas-X Strips

Chapstick

liquid Tylenol

chewable Multivitamins

Baby Wipes

Protein Powder

Ready-to-Drink Protein shakes

Probiotic Pearls (this is my own addition, my chiropractor said he thinks it will help my stomach)

Biotin Tablets (This is my own addition, since I am worried about my hair falling out when I start to lose weight)

Bromelain Tablets (another addition of mine, Bromelain promotes healing after surgery)

Grocery:

SF Jello

SF juice

SF Popsicles

SF Hot Cocoa

Drinkable Yogurt

broth and Soup

Milk (for protein shakes)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
