Hello everyone!! I was wondering if you could help me with a couple of must haves to put on my grocery list. My surgery is next month and want to go before I go to hospital. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

That's it Kathy. That's the only thing I can remember. And just in case you don't drink tap water, make sure you have plenty of bottled water.

Kath hit it right on - I did do a few low sodium soups, broths because you may want a little variety. Those popsicles were so appreciated! Maybe pick up some protein drink but dont get too crazy as your taste postop almost certainly changes some.

Don't forget all the supplements!!
No sugar added applesauce
Refried Beans
Bananas
Chicken Broth
Sugar Free Popsicles
Bottled Water (if you don't like your tap) and taste changes too
Packaged Mashed Potatoes

I got comfy pj's to wear to and from the hospital. I made sure I was up on all the bills before I went in too, my husband would be lost, I do that stuff. I did all the laundry before I went in too. That's all I can think of for now!

And If You Dont Like Water Get Some Crystal Lite Or Flavored Waters. I Used To Love Love Water And Ever Since The Surgery I Really Dont Like Water Anymore So I Use The Single Packs Of Crystal Lite And Just Add It In My Bottled Waters. I Love The Orange Flavored

Also At The Chinese Restaurant Get Some Wonton Soup And Just Eat The Broth (no Wontons) That Was Real Yum
