Just cannot eat
Ready4theday replied to PrayingForWeightLoss's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Can you have avocados? Nut butter? Greek yogurt? I've also been having luck with Genepro - it's such a small amount of powder for 30g of protein. It mixes well with nearly everything and has very little taste. -
I haven't used that but do use Premier Protein, Protein20 water & Genepro, unflavored. And what you like before surgery you might not like after just FYI. Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app

Im still on week one liquids. I don't know why Im not sick or unable to drink like so many other people. I am hungry. I get 60-90g of protein depending on what protein shake (Atkins, Premier, Muscle Milk, Genepro) I use. I'm taking my prescription antacids and do not feel nauseated. Im telling you I am hungry. I get "full" or not hungry from my soup or shake, but I am so hungry when Im cooking for the family, or when I smell food or see it on TV.....all the standard hungry triggering. And my stomach feels empty in between shakes. Theres no satisfaction at any table or overeating. I feel hungry! I feel like Im going crazy and I am being told up isn't really up and down isn't really down. Did anyone feel this way and get over it?

Unflavored Protein Powder
mocha2871@yahoo.com replied to Hlminichillo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was given the recommendation of this protein powder. So i will be trying it out in meals as i start my meal prep for pureed foods. I ordered it on Bariatric Pal GENEPRO Medical Grade Unflavored 30g Protein Powder -
I had a similar problem post op. Didn't mind the shakes before surgery but after they make me wanna vomit. My go to is 8-10 oz milk plus a scoop of GENEPRO flavorless protein (30 grams of protein). Mix and serve.

Well, now don't do as I do but...I measured out my SWEET CREAM and my Half and Half. Make my espresso and the total calories are 140. I also add a Tablespoon of GENEPRO. So my total Protein is drum roll!!! 34grams of protein. So again it is a win- win for me because I would drink my coffee anyhow.

It's the main ingredient in products like Metamucil. I had problems with constipation after surgery and started using the Costco sugar free version with a scoop of Genepro protein powder and that fixed me right up. I knew right away that I didn't want to experience that traffic jam again!

I read something about that before I first purchased it. When I checked in with my nutritionist and surgeon, they okayed Genepro. Is this lawsuit more recent, in the last few months? Trying to figure out how to proceed with protein powder. I tried a few others (unflavored) and they smelled and tasted like mold. Discarded them. (Edit: Includes Isopure Unflavored, and BiPro Boldly Bare Unflavored). Does anyone have an unflavored protein powder that smells and tastes like nothing, truly?

Best Unflavored Protein Powder?
lalame replied to PepperCat's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree genepro. I found it on a recommendation almost a year ago on this site. If you do a search of unflavored protein powder you will be able to read recommendations from other sleevers on this site. Good luck. -
How long i have to wait until i can have protein?
Kindle replied to newstartme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
isopure is a clear protein, as is genepro (which I haven't tried, but read about on here) that you can mix in anything. -
Can I increase my protein this way?
crazyplantlady replied to reachbree's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I like GENEPRO unflavored protein! 30g per serving, and just adds a milky taste to what you mix it in, and you can mix it with anything! -
6 days out on Christmas
shedo82773 replied to newmein2017's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I love love GENEPRO it is the only unflavored I have used that is definitely nonflavored!! You can order online, but I also was told that GNC stores carry it. But not the one we have here in our town. -
Expensive as all **** but... isopure (dutch cocoa was my early fav), syntrax nectar, genepro seem to be popular choices. Also BariatricPal store sells a large variety of protein shake and protein supplement alternatives if shakes aren't your cup of tea https://store.bariatricpal.com/pages/search-results-page?q=protein*

Those shakes are making me so sick too. I add GENEPRO unflavored Protein to yogurt, sf pudding , Soup and cottage. cheese. It's 30 grams of protein for 1 scoop Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@brather You need to transition to unflavored Protein and incorporate it into the foods you're eating. You can add it to any hot or cold beverage, Soups, soft foods, yogurts, etc. There are many brands like Quest, Isopure, Syntrax, GENEPRO, as well as powders made from plant Proteins, too.

Theme Park strategies
amandastearns replied to Ronjohn's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Try some protein bars and try to find a turkey leg or something in the park! But you could also stop at the vitamin shop and pick up any of the yummy snacks packed with protein. Lenny and Larry's cookies with 16 g of protein, protein chips, protein gummies, veggies, Apple and peanut butter... Or bring an apple sauce and add a scoop of genepro protein to it. -

Oddball here - dislike Premiere - Thoughts?
mipookiebear replied to tinytummy17's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Before my surgery I liked the vanilla & strawberry Premier Protein shakes, so I bought a bunch of it for after surgery. After my surgery, I couldn't stand the taste. So I had to returned it. I like flavorless GENEPRO & I add it to SF hot coco or herbal tea. -
Half a banana, sliced and frozen (I weigh each banana half before I freeze it and write the weight on the wax paper I wrap it in) 0.5-1 cup water mixed with a scoop of GenePro 1 cup fresh, raw, spinach .5 tablespoon of chia seeds sweetener to taste ice cubes to taste It is kind of boring on flavor, but I also don’t want a ton of carbs. It doesn’t taste bad, just sort of blah. It ends up being about 150 kcals and 30+ grams protein. I need to follow this thread for more ideas.

The very few times that I had success drinking a protein shake after surgery, it took me an hour or two to finish. Very slow. I have found much better luck filling a 24 oz. water bottle, adding a scoop of unflavored protein powder (Genepro is the only one that doesn’t make me nauseous), Crystal Light, and drinking over a few hours. And to another comment, my nutritionist told me vomiting isn’t normal after surgery.

Premier is my favorite but you need to try different protein shakes to make sure you are getting your protein in. Many people use GENEPRO, my doctor doesn't recommend it but you just have to try to find something that works. Our bodies won't heal without protein. I started shakes on day 5 and many of them were gross to me. I have a hard time getting even 30 grams of protein a day in. When I went to my one week follow-up my surgeon fussed in me. He says your sleeve won't heal without at least 60-70 grams of protein a day. It also helps you keep your hair. I don't want a hole in my stomach or all my hair to fall out for I get my protein now.

I also use GENEPRO protein. It's odorless and tasteless and you can put it in almost anything. I ordered it off Amazon. The nutrition information says that one scoop is 30 grams of protein because of the way the body absorbs it.... But I only count it as 15 grams Also I have found that for me, putting the premier Protein Shakes over ice helps me drink it better because it's not as thick when some of the ice melts.

Butter and honey in a bowl, microwave for 30seconds. add the rest of the ingredients, mix. Mixture will be slightly moist and crumbly. Press (hard) into a 9x9 pan. Refrigerate for 20 minutes. Cut into bars Calorie 221-fat 11.1grams-carbs 10.8-protein 15.5 grams plus whichever protein powder you add. They are yummy Some protein cookies- 2 extra ripe bananas-mash-1c oatmeal-1/2tsp vanilla, add 1 scoop of protein of your choice roll into 12 balls on cookie sheet flatten slightly-bake @ 375 Both of these are pretty good I hope you like them -
Protein shake that's easy on the stomach?
soccermom2 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've tried premier protein shakes and genepro powder. I can't stand the taste premier and could even taste genepro though it's supposed to be tasteless. More than that they both made me so sick. Nausea and a burning pain in my stomach for the rest of the day after just a little bit of them. Anybody else have this issue? I'm nervous about getting enough protein in after surgery if I don't find something that's easier on my stomach. -
