Protein Powder???



Recommended Posts

I have noticed lately that I have been able to eat a little more before I am satisfied. So today I had a Barium done and the top of my tummy was stretched. NOT A LOT but enough for them to put me on Protein Shakes for 2 weeks!

So my question is what type of Protein Drinks do you prefer? It has to have less then 5 grams of carbs. I picked up a 4 pack of EAS carb control, a 4 pack of Atkins shakes and Jay Robb whey Protein. I looked at the nectar brand and the flavors did not sound good.

So is there any that someone would recommed?

I get mine from GNC. The brand is Optimum Nutrition. I think they taste really good. My favorite is Mint chocolate.< /p>

I use Wheybolic Extreme from GNC...I'm not trying to body build so I only use 1.5 scoops per shake. I like both the Cookies 'n cream and chocolate flavors.

I also actually like the taste of these shakes; they don't have an odor or an aftertaste.

It really is so good! I put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes and let it get a nice frosty chill. I could drink them all day long!

Jay Robb is pretty good. I noticed the other day that muscle milk has come out with about ten flavors in powder form. I did not read the label so I don't know if it meets your criteria. I also used to buy some that were more like crystal light and had a lot of flavors to choose from.

( my luck). But im going to go back tomorrow. I didnt like the Jay Rob it tasted watery., maybe i put too much Water or not enough scoops.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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.

      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!
