So I just bought this stuff called Carb Solutions Protein Shake Mix, chocolate flavor. And WOW it is NASTY. What kind of Protein mixers are y'all using to get your protein in? I really like Instant Breakfast, but there just isn't enough protein in that. Also, I had my surgery this past Thursday on 4/14/2011. How long did it take before any of you could start working out? I was instructed to not lift more than 5 lbs...but I have been feeling a lot better since surgery. I am just ready to start doing some light workouts for starters. I usually ride my bike. I'm just wondering how many weeks it took anyone to start working out regularly?

Muscle Milk, Isopure, and Labrada are all good. Buy the pre-mixed ones, much better tasting IMO. I was cleared to exercise 6 weeks after surgery.

You can pick up MUSCLE MILK LIGHT on EBAY for $5.99 a jug. 2 scoops/8oz water.Is all you need.

Just type in MUSCLE MILK and the light will come up also. Then start looking for the price.

and you will find her. She usually carries strawberry MILKSHAKE, and chocolate Peanut Butter BLEND.

Both are very good, and she does combine shipping. (YOU CAN'T BEAT THIS PRICE)

I used unflavored that I got an GNC.. Mixed it with diet green tea and a splash of OJ... I got really tired of Choc. vanilla and strawberry...this mixture sounds odd, but it kinda has a tropical taste...BamaMom

I used to drink Atkins low carb but then discovered the EAS chocolate powder at Sam's Club. One scoop in a cup of unsweetened almond milk is 4 carbs, 160 calories and 25gm Protein. Less calories and quite a bit more Protein than Atkins so I switched over. I have to admit that I tossed a whole case of Muscle Milk (ready made) because I thought it was so awful and so did everyone I tried to give it to. :blink:

I use the one from Walmart, I can't remember the name of it but if you go to their website and search whey Protein it comes up. It's the best tasting one I've had so far!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
