The Protein in the Protein Shots is not as bioavailable as whey Protein isolate.

I really like the Inspire shakes at bariatriceating.com.

If you're sick of sweet shakes, their PURE unflavored whey protein isolate powder is undetectable in broth, Soup, Greek yogurt, and so on.

I guess I am lucky, because I love my Protein shakes. I have to have the choc ones. I don't even miss ice cream or cake, as long as I can have a shake. I put frozen banana slices in it and sometimes some Peanut Butter. YUMMY.

I'm with you..I love my shakes. My doctor's office manager had lap band and has a list of about 60 different recipes for them...everyone I have tried so far is almost better than the last one. They range from White Chocolat Cheesecake, to Peaches & Cream, Mango Lime Margarita, Carmel Frappuccino, Iced Mexican coffee, Banana Split shake, Root Beer Float, Dreamy Orange Creamsicle, Anti Stress smoothie, Peanut Butter Banana Blend, and so many more. I normally put ice in them and eat them with a spoon.

I'm in the Protein shake loving group as well and I ain't doing anything fancy.

I fill my cup with 10 ounces of water; dump in the Optifast powder; shake like Hell and drink.

My roommate is a gym rat and mixes tasteless Protein Powder with everything.

Why not make your own? I make an awesome Protein shake that I use as a Meal Replacement. Strawberries, bananas, Orange juice, a little NF frozen yougurt, ice and Protein powder. I also make one with bananas, PB, and some other stuff.

I too got sick of the protein shakes and the sodium made me temp gain a pound anytime I drank one(the costco ones). This for me is a much better alternative!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
