Ok so im looking for a protien powder that I can buy in bulk....I buy the Jullian Michaels whey powder but it dont come in a big jug i go through one in less than a week and it's not cheap so I need to be more cost effective if this is going to be a long term thing for me. AND SINCE IT IS... I need to save money. Although weight is a big thing in my life i still have to live also....So HELP....SMOOTCHES.

Unfortunately, Protein powders are a personal taste thing. I would say start with buying cheaper versions (Walmart sells the Body Fortress 2lb for $15) and taste testing to find a preference.

Something I love, you might hate.

I was going to say my nutritionist likes the Body Fortress which she said is at Wal-Mart and Kroger.

I have the Soy Protein from Sam's (not a fan, but I'm finishing it because I paid for it). I also have the nectar from the Vitamin Shoppe (pricey), it's foamy and it was very thin when I made it. I need to try it again.

The pain of finding a Protein Shake you like,,,and can afford! I really like the shakes and bars from my clinic but they are expensive, $13 for a pack of 7.

It definitely is a to-your-taste kind of thing. I enjoy the Premier Protein shakes from SAMs club. They chill nicely and don't have the nasty aftertaste (again my personal opinion). I've tried the Pure Protein Shakes from Walmart and they taste terrible to me. However, I'm trying to drink them all because I spent $$ on them.

I'm determined to find a powder-because they last longer-that I like. I hope that you find one too. Good luck :)

      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.
