Hurricanc Survival & WLS diet
The sincere input on this website has been a tremendous resource for me. Thank
you for all who take the time to respond. I am 3 weeks pre-op and making final
preparations for life after surgery. I live on the NC coast and it is common
during hurricane season (June through October) for our area to be without
electricity for 2 to 3 days following a direct hit - of which we’ve had several
in the last 6 years!!. Wondered if anyone, particularly in the first few months
following surgery, had experienced no refrigeration, no blender, no stove or
oven, and no functioning grocery stores? Some how I don’t think my storm
stand-by’s like Vienna Sausages, chips, & Coke will work for me this time. Do
you have suggestions what to have on hand to survive the next Hurricane and yet
maintain the WLS protocol? Thanks!
