which protein shake do you like?



Recommended Posts

HI! I'm just starting my pre-LAP-BAND® liquid diet, and I was given a long list of Protein Shakes. Which brand do you find the most tasty? They don't seem cheap, so I don't want to buy a whole bunch of different ones without some direction. I just bought a 4 pack of Myoplex Lite today - tried it, and it's okay, but not great. Plus I tend to be lactose intolerant. I haven't checked out GNC yet, but I thought I'd try to get some input from others first...

Thanks!:thumbup:

I use the chocolate EAS carbadvantage. They are pretty good, or I have just gotten use to them. :thumbup:

I use the chocolate Body Fortress from Walmart.... I actually like it. It's chocolate! I make it 2 ways... during the week I put a cup of skim milk and ice in a shaker bottle and add a scoop of the chocolate Protein powder and a tablespoon of instant coffee....mmmmm... on the weekends when I have more time I make it with the blender...ice and skim again, 1 T of Peanut Butter and 1/2 banana. Chocolate Peanut Butter banana!

I'm satisfied with both of these... and I love any excuse for chocolate!!! Hope I still love them after I've been banded!

powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury - chocolate mixed with skim milk or strawberry mixd with water/cyrstal lite lemonade. Has 20g Protein per serving.

Its expensive - $24 thru my doctor or $18.95 + shipping thru the website unjury.com.

I have tried several and this is the one I tolerate the best. If I run out I use Jillian Michaels brand from Walmart.< /p>

      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.
