Can anyone recommend a Protein powder specifically for PS healing? A surgeon I just saw (and decided not to use) Recommended one from Bariatric Advantage but they no longer make it. Any ideas?

WE USE A PRODUCT CALLED "UNJURY". IT IS THE BEST TASTING Protein Powder WE HAVE FOUND. THEY MAKE SEVERAL FLAVORS AND I ORDER MINE ON LINE, HOPE THIS HELPS.

Go to GNC and get "Amplified 100% whey Protein." Taste great and add a few Vitamins and minerals plus it has useful Lipids for saturation. In other words it is absorbed into the body well. $39.99 and it is Buy one get one half. Offers more amino acids to the muscles for growth. Buy the $20 a year membership and the first week of the month is always 20% off on top of buy one get one half off. Hope this helps. PS tastes awesome but only tried the chocolate. tthippy

I use Unjury too. I use the unflavored in my Jello, the vanilla in my vanilla pudding, and the chocolate and vanilla (plus some dried milk) in my skim milk high-protein shakes. I also have started using the chicken Soup flavor in my broth and after I've let my low-fat cream of chicken/mushroom cool. Order it from Amazon; it comes quickly!

I also use the "Amplified" and so far it is the best I have tried. I use the vanilla in smoothies with Greek yogurt, fruit, almond butter, and skim milk. I pour it over some crushed ice and it is yummy! Have used the chocolate too with banana, yogurt, and the skim milk. Both are really good. I bought the membership card and it saved me a lot!

Good luck.

Another vote for Unjury - love all the flavors. I mix the strawberry sorbet w/ raspberry lemonade crystal light. The chocolate, I mix with skim milk for Breakfast and late afternoon snack - espcially when I need a chocolate fix. The chicken Soup, I have with lunch sometimes and also use it as a base for other soups/sauces.

The PS I spoke with didnt recommend one but told me that he expected me to get 100 grams of Protein a day. At the store I go to they have ABS Protein shakes. Two hundred and fifty calories and 50 grams of protein. Two shakes and I will meet my quota. Hope this helps.

OK, I'm too lazy to deal with powders but I am vegetarian so Protein is critical. I start every day with a Premier Protein drink from Cosco...choc or vanilla. 30 grams of protein and 160 cals!

      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.
