Coworkers and I are making a basket of goodies for a woman in our office who is having VSG today.  What are your suggestions for the basket?  She's on a 3-week liquid diet. We thought of magazines, soup, protein shakes, crystal light, papaya enzyme, bath stuff.  I know there are more ideas out there.  Sure appreciate your help!

 My mother bought me a Snuggie and it has really come in handy! Sometimes when you are losing so fast our internal thermostats are kind of wonky and I am always freezing!

How very thoughtful of you!  Thank you so much for supporting your coworker!  This is definitely a journey where we all need the support of people at home, work.... everywhere. 

A journal would be a good gift so that she can document her journey.  Also, coupons or gift certificates to GNC or Vitamin Shoppe.  We spend alot of moola there!  A tape measure so she can document her progress in inches would also be good. 

Good luck.

Very thoughtful!

Some SF hot chocolate packets, maybe a box of assorted decaf tea bags?  Those are both things I'm enjoying on liquids right now.

Depending on her plan... Maybe sugar free pudding and jello? Or a gift card to somewhere that rents movies.

For something different----blender bottles (you can't have too many of those) and a/some bottles of SF Torani or DaVinci flavorings.

Nice of you all!!
