Recommended Posts

Today only GNC has free shipping and 15% off (code Vday15). What is your favorite brand/flavor of protien powder? I'd like to buy some today but I have only had the Jillian Michaels choclate. I do love that mixed with coffe, milk, splenda & SF hazelnut.

So whatis your favorite and how do you prepare it?:smile:

I buy the GNC brand 100% whey in unflavored. I put it in just about everything.

I like the GNC Whey Protein as well. Unjury is my fav, but I don't think you can get it at GNC. nectar is good, Lean Dessert is pretty good too.

Inspire Protein from bariatriceating.com is THE BEST. I like the Dutch chocolate Cake and Peanut Butter Cookie flavors the best. The chocolate, I like prepared with warmed almond milk. The PB is great blended with Water & ice, but also good warm. I am sure the other flavors (there are lots) are wonderful.

Oh--and their PURE unflavored Protein is excellent, too. It really does blend into foods without a telltale protein-y taste/smell. I use it to bump up protein in Soups, etc.

Whoops--sorry. I didn't read far enough to see you were sticking with GNC.

I order mine on auto delivery with bariatric advantage- pro Joe made with real coffee, 120 calories, 5g carb and 20g Protein. And the bottles are really cute also. People can[t really tell what your drinking. It looks like a frapachino bottle

From GNC I get their brand in banana Creme and Cookies and Cream. From Bariatriceating.com I get the summer melon, the Peanut Butter cookie and the chocolate peanut butter fudge. I also get regular old Chocolate and Vanilla from Walmart. I also drink an Atkins Mocha Latte every morning when I first wake up, I actually put it on my nightstand the night before, so I wake up, shake up and start drinking.

Then once I am moving around I make a mocha latte using 1 scoop of Vanilla Protein and a sleeve of Mazel, with 4 oz of Water. Later during the day I have a scoop of summer melon mixed with 4 oz of sugar free Watermelon/cherry or Watermelon/Kiwi Koolaid. At night before bed I have a protein smoothie made with 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt, a scoop of a flavor usually banana, 1/3 cup of frozen banana/strawberry slices and 1 cup almond milk.

During the day I also have protein in my 2 meals I actually eat.

I really like the PURE Protein Shakes in cans at GNC. It's got 35g of Protein. They come in all types of flavors, Cookies and cream is my favorite.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
