I drink EAS Carrb Control chocolate and it is very good. I would like to know if there are other ones that people really like. I tried Muscle Milk light and did not like it. I look forward to your comments. Thanks.

I have tried GNC Why Isolate and all the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes and I hate them all. To the point where I couldn't keep them down. From what I hear, a lot of people have trouble with whey shakes.

My boss who is a marathon runner bought me some Sun Warrior vanilla powder and it works perfectly for me. It is a rice Protein that is very palatable for me. It's about $45.00 per bag, that that's about 50 servings. It's well worth if for me.

@amyluvslou; I want to make my own as well, but was afraid of using banana (love bananas) and milk because of the carbs. I usually drink EAS vanilla or strawberry Protein Drinks (17 grams protein) or Zoic found at Publix or Big Lots ($5 at Big Lots). the Cookies and cream, and vanilla are my favorites. I also have the Whey Protein and sometimes add that to my protein drinks. I guess I will try your recipe and maybe tweak it. If it keeps you full for 4-6 hours I am for it. I bought a Ninja Warrior Stick Blender and it is the bomb for making shakes. Thanks

I also use EAS. I mix ice, milk, and pb in mine, it last for 2-3 servings and taste awesome. I have also tried half a banana, that was pretty good also.

Another recipe I tried and liked was 1 scoop chocolate protien powder, 1 tbsp instant Decaf coffee, splenda, and ice. It makes something like you would get at Starbucks :)

I use Syntrax Nectar Protein and it is awesome. I have the Vanilla Bean Torte and the chocolate Truffle is really good also. I get mine from The Vitamin Shoppe and they also sell it on ebay and Amazon.< /p>

What about plain old Instant Breakfast? I saw on mine that with milk it's 23 g protein- and my nut said that your body can only digest 25 g or so Protein at a time, so any more in the shake is just a waste?

Since I have an allergy to Splenda and maltodextrin I have a real problem finding Protein drinks and diet items in general. I have found that Bolthouse Farms Protein Plus (chocolate) is an incredible protein supplement as well as Naked juice protein (chocolate). I don't know why the other flavors don't taste good to me but these are smooth and not chalky at all. They are generally in the produce section of the grocery store.

        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!

      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
