what on-line stores are you using for protein?



Recommended Posts

I would love some feedback for purchasing Protein Powder and other pre/post op items on-line. Has anyone used the bariatric pantry?

Coupons anywhere? Specials? Customer service issues?

Thanks!

Hello Butterfly2010-

Last night I ordered for the first time from Bodybuilding.com. They had a great selection of Isopure powders (even Mint chocolate Chip) for $38.99 for a 3lb tub. Cheaper than the local GNC on sale. I was able to google coupons for them which worked great and covered the shipping. Plus I got to select a free item and I picked the Tornado Mixer/shaker. Looks like a battery powered mixed on the mini scale but it's free. I received confirmation today that my order was shipped via FedEx and should be here in 2-3 days.

So far it's been a great experience.

I've ordered from Nashua Nutrition and Best Price Nutrition. Also if you call Syntrax they will sell you a sampler with 10 or 11 single packets of their flavors for like $10 with shipping. The number is 1-866-333-7403. Just tell them you are a bariatric patient and would like some samples.< /p>

Hi everyone,

I personally have stuck with what is available at GNC. I have some issues with trusting larger stores and the quality of the products they carry, so I stay with GNC.

I currently have the Isopure and the GNC Amp. I use the Isopure vanilla to mix with my morning smoothies because on its own, it does not taste that great, but mixing with juice and fruit really helps to mask the taste while giving me the nutrients I need.

I use the GNC Amp chocolate and Cookies and cream for dinner. Pay attention to the servings when you look at the nutritional ingredientes. GNC Amp shows the nutrition info for three scoops where Isopure shows it for only one scoop and they are comparable.

With these two, I really have no interest in any other Protein mixes.

Hope this helps!

I order my Syntrax Nectar & Labrada Protein Bars from DaMuscle. I think the Bariatric Pantry is more expensive than the other sites I've searched.

      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.
