1.Premier Protein is cheap and tastes great and is at Walmart. 30 grams per bottle. They come in chocolate,.vanilla, and strawberry. Another good Protein source is Optisource- they have caramel and strawberry and they are both delicious very cold or on ice.
2. Also you may want to consider Isopure protein looks like kool-aid but has 40 grams per bottle. They come in many different flavors. If you are close to a GNC, you can sample the flavors. This must be cold to drink in my opinion
3. Powerade zero, different kinds to mix with the Isopure
4. an unflavored protein that you can mix with food like powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, or GENEPRO
5. sugar free ice pops
6. chicken , beef, vegetable broth
7. Crystal light sugar free
8. SOBE Lifewater is zero calories, and sugar free and is delicious! They carry different flavors. Apple fuji Pear is my favorite.
9. No sugar added grape, or apple juice ( will need to dilute half and half Water.
10. Fairlife fat free milk, has lots of protein and low calories.
11. Different extracts or Sugar free Torani syrups to help with flavor if modifying a shake.
My brain is dead at 3am, can't think of any more right now....anyone want to add

My surgery is on September 24th. I see the dietitian in two weeks. What foods or liquids should I stock my cabinets up with? What Protein Powder do most people get? I will probably do my shopping at Walmart, target, or green earth (organic food store) what did you eat your first 2 weeks after surgery?

Had my surgery at 2pm on Sept 1st. It is absolutely painless except for gas in chest/shoulders area. I was up walking around by 9pm. For all those worried, I have a low pain tolerance and would not hesitate to do it all over again, what a breeze. Surgery took 2 hrs, by the time I woke up it was nearly 6pm, and was walking the hall with my IV at 9pm. Hope you all have a smooth surgery like I did!

I just realized I am no longer morbidly obese! BMI is down to 39.7! Woo-hoo!

I am 28 years old and I have suffered from obesity since I was 10 years old. I have been on diets since I was 15 years old. I have tried serval weight loss pills, and several food diet including weight watchers, the Atkins diet, and Nutrisystem. I have high cholesterol, high blood pressure, thyroid problems, and fatty liver. My insurance approved my life changing surgery. I'm having the bypass done in 3 weeks. It's going to be a bumping road.

Congratulations!!

Your body needs to switch from starvation mode to fat burning mode give it time lots of Protein and Water. Don't give up!

I'm 18 years old and have been in this process for about 4 months now through classes and appointments to receive the RNY gastric bypass. Everything is done, now just waiting for insurance approval. It's been a week and I'm super anxious. Help.

Congratulations to you! You're taking a huge step toward a healthier you, and the fact that you acknowledge there will be bumps in the road is actually a good thing. These forums were (and still are) a great source of information, experiences and support for me- I hope it's the same for you. Best of luck to you!
