Shakes

[tattoomommy 37]

Hi everyone

I just had my appt with the nutritionist & said it would take 4-6 wks for insurance approval. My question to all is what kind of shakes & liquids that worked for u? I wanted to try a few before i start my pre/post diet. That way i can feel comfortable with what I'm drinking & have a comfortable hear start....

Thank u....

About how much are the shakes... Are they more expensive at drs office?

[jarchuleta 20]

Yes very more expensive. A fellow banded got me stuck on choc cream ready to make small bottles off eBay. Much cheaper, add Water to the container and you have ready to drink. About 1.20 each when purchased a lot of them. Also where is everyone finding sugar free choc Syrup? I looked Walmart, no go....

Wow, i should check out ebay, sounds like a good deal. Thanks for the advice :-)

How many shakes do you have to drink after surgery? Or when you are on solids? I found something I Like for now but its only 15 grams of Protein for 1 glass. 100 calories. It's a Jillan Michael's one

My nutritionist said I should be aiming for 20-30 grams of Protein, 3 or less grams of fat, and less than 5 grams of sugar per serving. I searched everywhere for protein that fit this requirment, and Walmart out of all places had some of the best and well priced protein for what my needs will be.

I'm headed to wal mart & gonna try what they have. The great thing about getting them from there is their return policy.... If i don't like it, i can return it with my receipt....

The Bariatric Advantage shakes are very thick and gross imo. I LOVE Proto whey by BNRG Double chocolate is delicious, best Protein Drink I've ever tasted! I also like the ready to drink shakes EAS Myoplex Light in French vanilla.< /p>

Thanks dj, I'll look into those.... My journey for a tolerable shake is not going so well but have been given some awesome suggestions.... Thanks again :-)
