Default Couple of questions, ok lots of them

I cannot find a list of things to bring to the hospital. I dont know what to search for.
Is there a specific type of chicken, or beef broth that i should buy? Does one have more protein then others?
Where do you peeps buy your vitamins from? I was told about Bariatric Advantage, but i wonder if i have to buy them forever from there?
What vitamins do you get? Brands?
During the first 2 weeks while on liquids, did any of you add protein to your chicken broth? I was thinking about getting some Any Whey tastless stuff to add to my broth. What do you think? Will my tummy tolerate protein supp's in the first 2 weeks?
I am also curious how many weeks after surgery did you feel you could have gone back to work? Mainly to those of you who have sit down jobs.
Sorry for all the question, but i figure i would just ask them all at once.
