Question about protein powders



Recommended Posts

I am wondering if there are any Protein powders that don't needed to be added to milk or Water and you still benifit from them. I am looking for something to add to smoothies or something similar.

Hi

You can get unflavored protein powders that can be added. One I like is AnyWhey. I believe it has 18 grams of protein. You have to be careful with most of them, though, as they get clumpy if added to something hot. Just do a Google search.

Yes, yogurt more than likely. I called GNC and they do have a powder that you can mix with gatorade or juice. thanks for the info on anywhere!,

You are right about the clumpiness. I am currently using a brand called Jarrow whey Protein it is all natural. I did not want a flavored protein because I put it is Soup. I did not want everything to be chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry. I had oyster stew for lunch and I blended the protein. The stew tasted the same but it was a little thicker in consistency.

thanks! I will look for it! I just really didnt know if mixing it with other things than milk, made the Protein less or if it HAS to be mixed with milk to get the protein out of the powder.< /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.
