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!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
