Hey guys! I needed to grab a Protein Shake at the grocery store because I left mine at home. I tried the Pure Protein shake brand..Vanilla Creme to be exact and it was really good! I have been looking for a good protein supplement and was excited that this one tasted good (to me anyways :)). It has 100 calories, 21grams protein, and 0.5 grams of fat. :tongue2:

I haven't seen that one here in NW Arkansas, but sure will be looking for it.

My favorite is the strawberry Special K ones. Also love the Optifast, but they are quite a bit more expensive.

Thanks for the tip!

I get the cans of Pure Protein at The Vitamin Shoppe. I love them! My favorite is Cookies n cream. The cans have 35 grams of protein in them. The vanilla creme has 60 extra calories than the one you buy probably because the can is a larger serving. The banana cream is also pretty yummy. :biggrin: I have 2 a day.

Amy- I'm glad you told me the Cookies n' Cream is good cuz I was going to try it and didn't! :biggrin:

Tish- I got it from Giant Eagle, which I'm sure is not in Indiana. I pretty sure you can get them online too.

Bandmom and Kimaly- There are 4grams of carbs per can

Good luck everyone! Have a great day! :unsure:

Thanks for the info JllyBean & Amy, I do eat the pure Protein Bars but I've not seen the pre made shakes. I went to the site and it gave me a few places to check. I'll be looking for them. Thanks again.

      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?
